Shelby GT350R Owner Review - The Best Car No One Is Talking About Anymore

What's up everyone a happy late summer and today we feature our third Mustang Shelby GT350R review in our favorite Oxford White w/ Kona Blue stripes. A 3,600-mile never-tracked creampuff example. In this video, we'll explore the key differences between the regular GT350 and the GT350R, delve into the collectability, and take you on an honest POV drive through scenic backcountry Tennessee roads. This was filmed late summer before I left for Monterey Car Week, and it was a beautiful summer evening. The POV drive was filmed when I got back, the Monday after Labor Day weekend.

In this Mustang Shelby GT350R review, we hope you better understand this car's unique driving experience that just sets the Mustang Shelby GT350R apart. We think it will always be considered a true American muscle car, and one to aspire to in any collection. We'll also share insights on the market value, and investment potential of this modern classic.

With 526 horses and 429 ft. pounds of torque the 5.2 liter flat-plane crank hand-assembled Voodoo V8 engine is one incredible powerplant. Turn up the volume on the point-of-view drive and listen to that flat-plane crank V8 engine sing. The Tremec six-speed transmission is really good in this car too. While difficult to heel and toe the Shelby GT350R, overall it's a winning ad thrilling driving experience.

At the end, stay tuned or hit the chapter button as we update you on our exciting new custom detached garage project, tailor-made for housing this incredible Shelby GT350Rs. While we have a month left as of typing this, we look forward to making content in my small automotive sanctuary.

I've been at Flat Rock Assembly for 10 years, and the GT350 is still my favorite car that we built.

I drive mine almost every day and so do my friends with their GT350’s. As far as I’m concerned it’s one of the best cars ever made. Great video. Not too many cars can compare.

[kdcurrington]

Keep the content coming. I have a shadow black 2018 GT350 was at 3k new and now at 38k now. I feel like even though the car is considered old now, it's still a great car today and will be for years to come.

[gzzzup]

Beautiful setup you have great taste and I agree with everything that you have stated 100%. I have the same car / color combination in this video which I daily and absolutely love it. Best car I have ever owned and I will never get rid of it. Subscribed! Keep up the good work brother 👊🏻

[chisquare]

I'm glad no one is talking about it, maybe the price won't get more ridiculous. Very little is good about a car getting collector status, and this is one of my favorite cars.

[KKONET]

Great video! Your description of the visceral feel of driving your GT350R reminds me of how it feels for me to drive my '13 Boss 302 Laguna Seca. While the GT350R is a level (or two) beyond the Boss 302LS, the fun factor you're describing sounds very familiar. Someday, I'd love to have a GT350R in addition to the Boss.

What a wonderful footage you made, all in one-take. Thanks.
BTW, where do you live? Seems beautiful.

[Cronus_]

Hard to explain how great this car is, but everyone who drives one feels the same way about it.

[jonathangoode]

Excellent video review.✨💯 Thank you for sharing your insight. Love your GT-350R, it's the dream car that my wife has always wanted.

[bryantpowers]

One of the best cars of all time that was forgotten about in the recent years. Considering a 350 as my next daily, life’s short and it is the best sounding v8 maybe ever? Regardless, Shelby beat Ferrari over 50 years ago for a reason, this is the result

[ChirpingChocobo]

just found this review. I appreciate your passion for your R. I got into the GT350 and 350Rs which convinced me to get my F-150 with the Coyote motor instead of the Ecoboosts. I also did a Raptor Steering wheel swap (yes i do paddle shift it everytime i drive it) because I came from a manual WRX. I would love to own either a 350 or 350R in the future and like I said, I really do appreciate and share your passion for them even if I don't own them yet because I too value a great driving experience.

[dylanp]

My dream car a gt350r I want one so bad. Maybe some day in a few years. I'd really love to have one.

[johnalterio]

I feel the standard gt350 (19-20) are the best deals on the market and the desirable of the years and models. If the R had more HP, then I could justify the increase, but don't think giving up the backseat and CF wheels make the premium.

[KaiatheSiberianHusky]

After I bought my 2023 Mach 1 I bought Ford Performance hood struts because I agree with you, our cars costs to much not to come with them.

[whatsupwithsteve]

Awesome video! I've been looking for something to replace my c6z05 that I parted with a few years ago. I've driven almost everything and keep coming back to the GT350(R if I can find one). Or I'll send it to Shelby for the Heritage treatment, maybe that wide-body too. Good luck with the garage and future videos! Oh, and if you decide to part with your beauty next year lemme know....:)

[davidsmith]

Shelby gt 350 is one the best if not the best sounding v8 I have ever heard and I have owned a gto and a mustang gt and they sounded great...gt 350 is in a league of it's own. Beautiful car and wicked sounding, I love that car ! Awesome video too.

[stevemassarone]

The 350 definitely makes you work it’s not an easy car to drive not very forgiving but that’s what makes it sooo satisfying and engaging... 2 hands on the wheel radio off track mode on and it’s game time!!!

[flyboyu]

I find the car trammels less with the steering setting to comfort. . . . . .

[lawrenceh.]

Awesome car! Best looking Mustang ever made! I have a fully loaded 2019 GT350 with the leather seats (preferred). Fix your driver A-pillar seal...it's bugging me. Hahaha. Great video and info. Thank you.

[GD-lotq]

Really want to own one and keep it long term to enjoy the manual but I’m scared to death about the cost if it ever needs new engine smh
