Yes, both GT350 and R have "Active Valve" dual exhaust (quad tip). HOWEVER, this isn't an option on anything but the GT350 and R, so once again, GM is providing options in their first tier (1LT and SS) models that ford is not, so we have a problem here with getting to an apple to apple comparison level.
Folks that believe the 2SS is overpriced are checking option boxes that aren't even available to check on the Ford side of things, until you go with a 49K (no optioned) GT350.
IMO you are getting a TON of stuff in a 2SS and if you think it's too much $$$, then go with 1SS, for which I think the closest Mustang is a GT with performance Pack and a 2SS is in between somewhere closer to GT350 IMO, but lets realize we are talking about 15K price difference between 2SS and GT350 (with Track Pack), so yes - GT350 is going to be a better performer and is going to also take 33% more of your hard earned coin.
I think between the two offerings Ford and Chevy provide all of us, we are in a great position to get the car that fits our needs the best. I'm still waiting to see what the HIPO camaro has to offer, i wait, and wait, and wait.
