This is very likely.

Gt350 is better looking in side profile and especially from the rear. It's very clean. I don't like the cheap textured non painted plastic on the mustang.

Agreed. Really the only reason the GT350 falls behind the 1LE is its price. Just too much $ for a Mustang.

Ohhhhh, really?? I would be willing to bet that, if you posted the sound tracks of the Ferrari and the Ram one after the other without comment, and took a poll of which was the better sounding, 70 to 80% of those listening would vote in favor of the Dodge Ram...lol...especially the southern rednecks like me. On this forum anyway! I didn't intend to say anything about the Shelby since it sounds pretty darn good. The Ferrari sounds like a ricer car to me.

I had to laugh the other day. I was watching Head2Head on Netflix and the episode of the '14 Z/28 vs '15 GT350R came on. My wife, who's not an automotive enthusiast at all, said she was sorry but she doesnt like the look of the Z at all and felt the GT350R was a much better looking car. Then the got to the part where they were pounding on the cars, really focusing on the exhaust noise of the GT350R and she just kept telling me to turn it off. She hated the sound of the Mustang so much! I don't mind it, but prefer the Z's sound much more.

New Mustang GT 350's are going for $ 75,000 on Autotrader. Thats more than what the ZL1 will go for. And we got a guy who thinks a Ferrari sounds like a Jap car....

OK - we will return to your regularly scheduled programming aftr the DNC commies are done spouting off.....

The gt350 is a nicer looking car, it's not $20,000 over the price of a 1LE nice though. And it sounds like a blender trying to blend rocks.

Brand bias is hilarious. I guarantee that if GM had brought that FPC engine to market first 90% of these ricer comments would not be here and it would be the greatest thing ever.

Doubtful. I have tons of friends whom are car enthusiasts, not brand or type biased in any way, none of them would think a freaking Ram pick up sounds better than a Ferrari. Not saying a Hemi Ram with a nice exhaust doesn't sound good, just not in the same league. There is a reason Ferrari is so well known for it's sound...hence why Ford said trying to get some of that Ferrari sound was their benchmark. I don't see how you could like one, and not the other either and I don't see how in anyway a flat plane crank V8 sounds like a "ricer car" as you call them to be quite honest. But, to each their own of course.

Let me guess, you think F1 cars sound like ricers too?
