Should have went with Rino frow Gwatney, he tuned my car remotely and turned it into a beast, never had an issue once, not to mention his communication was first rate, usually had updated tune within a few hours.

Yep, let me add about $260 to the addition note of around $400. Oh, you have a trade? Paying that off, leaves a note of $764.32, sign here...

I totally agree with you. The Mustang GT 350 and GT 350 R are going to be outstanding cars for Ford along with the '15 and '16 Hellcats. I'm a Chevy diehard fan for many decades now, but first and foremost a car guy. I'm excited to see and review all these new kick-ass cars. Muscle cars forever.

I am not one of the people whining about or comparing the prices of either car in this thread. I think the new GT350 is a badass car for sure, I also think the new SS will be too. Just different...but I am not (and not saying you are, but they are in here) one of the Camaro leg humpers who can't give credit where credit is due.
But the base GT350 is missing one key element that Ford know most will want, that is Magride. And after the LS media, that Magride is almost a certain to have according to those there. So that adds a min of $6500 more to the price, thus puts it in ZL1 territory in which it has Magride is stock.

I go to the other forum nowadays for entertainment and to see the flip flopping. I remember when this man was saying that Motor Trend and Randy Pobst were paid off by GM when the 1LE did well.. Now that he supposedly works for Ford, it's a fair test. Lmao. I don't give a crap either way on who outperforms who. GT350R should do better.. Just find this a tad bit funny. I know you'll check in or one of your cronies will. .

The Z51 and z28's performance has always been concealed from each other. It was deemed early on at Nurburgring that the C7 Z51 was a z28 contender for roughly $15,000 less.

This is their new approach to product cannibalism... just keep them separated from the media...

No excuses now gentleman, Ford has all the elements combined to fill your fantasy scenario.

All the competition, Laguna Seca, Same day and your specific driver of choice. No excuses...

Watch them turn on Randy...

Randy Probst does not work for Ford. Pill is obviously confused by what Randy posted on his Twitter feed. Ford Performance tapped him to lead the media drive day at Laguna Seca and to also drive the GT350 benchmark cars so they could have a same driver/same day comparison.

"Confused", hell. Hes twisting it to meet his fanboy rhetorics.

My thoughts were that he doesn't work for them either and was there for the media event.. He did say "but I'm not media".. Which is weird. Guess he's there just running laps as fast as he can. Still brought in by Ford if that's the case. Which doesn't matter to me either way. I see the 350R being a great performer and it should be quicker than the Z/28.

I'm just going to say Ford paid off Randy to run the tests for them and make them look better. That's what Pill said about GM. Trololol
