So /o/
Theoretically, would it be better to save up for a mustang gt premium with a supercharger or just save up for gt350?
Mustang GT Premium = ~$40,000 + supercharger and other mods = ~$50,000
Shelby GT350 = ~$60,000
Why do people buy the Shelby? I understand the prices are jacked up, but it is really just better around corners + badgewhoring? You can surpass the power of a shelby with a GT and still spend $10,000 less.
Also, I wouldn't DD a shelby, but would DD a mustang gt. Do people DD shelbys?

The gt350 will depreciate way slower. If you want a supercharged gt get a used gt500 and keep it stock.

warranty + reliability
When I was child and played NFSU, I didn't under why anyone bought exotics when I could pimp a neon to exotic speed stats. Then I tried doing the same with a Honda fit in Forza and learned why.
Now that I'm an adult, there's an appeal to not owning a hopped up shitbox. I guess a supercharged mustang GT isn't a shitbox, but there is more than just HP between a GT and gt350.

thanks for the reponses

let me school you my ignorant child
>GT350
>more displacement
>more advanced crankshaft that allows it to rev higher
>improved valvetrain to support revving ultra high
>reinforced bottom end to support revving ultra high
>tr6060 transmission
>imrproved clutch to handle stock hp
>larger diameter brake rotors, race compound on pads
>stiffer suspension that enables more confidence on the corners
probably missing a fuck ton more shit too
Tbh just buy a v6 or a ecocuk mustang and use the extra money on mods, it'll be both faster and cheaper in every way.
>>16691500
>>tr6060 transmission
This is wrong the transmission in the gt350 and gt350r is the tremec tr3160.
>>16690887
It depends on what you are doing with the car. Are you constantly tracking the car or autocross? Are you just looking for a daily?
>>16690887
You'll end up with a real laundry list of mods if you actually want to use much of the excess power without breaking anything or dying. More power should be the last thing you add to your car.

GT350 is still better a better choice, look at prices of a 03 Terminator vs a 03 modded GT
>>16690887
op do you not into money? i am talking depreciation mainly.
Take the terminator cobra it is anywhere from 15K from a shit example to 50K for a special edition low miles. with most examples being around 20-25K. The gts of those years are going for maybe 5K in good condition. Why? becasue there will ALWAYS be a new GT, that is why even s550 Gts are dropping into the 20L+K range used any they are not at all old yet. The GT350 will always keep its value longer becasue it is a Shelby and if ford retires the voodoo engine down the line then they will retain that value even more. If you want to save money and have a car you can mod the shit out of and you dont care about resell value too much, then yes get a 2015+ GT slap on a supercharger done. If you want a car that you can drive and have fun while lightly modding and still being able to sell if for about as much as you paid, then the GT350 all the way. If ford discontinues the GT350 name down the line for the foreseeable future, you can bet your ass these cars will jump in value or stay rock steady in resell price.
What are the pros and cons of the ecoboost? Is it worth even considering?
>>16693045
Especially when you are rebuilding that POS every 5 months.
>>16690887
The Shelby has a superior suspension
>>16695421
If you vape
- mustang GT base manual - ~32000
- roush stage 2 kit - 7500
- 727 horsepower for less than $40k with no retarded dealer special snowflake badge markup?? - priceless
>>16690887
If you don't care about warranties and just want to go fast, buy the very cheapest V6 and spend every possible dollar on aftermarket.
>tfw you bought a 2014 V6
At least it's still fun to drive.
>>16690887
If you get the GT350, for the love of god dont modify it. I garauntee the car has more potential in it on the track than you have capability to make use of it.
>>16693999
WHAT COLOR IS THAT
>>16697647
Guard green
>>16697552
The only thing that car is going to be good for is burnouts, random highway pulls and a false sense of superiority as you drive around town feeling better about your life because your car has a big HP number attached to it.
Which is probably fine, since that's the reason 99% of people buy a mustang in the first place.
>>16697552
That power is fucking worthless if you don't have the supporting parts to make it work like a good suspension, transmission and crank

Fuck all these people trying to compare cars. Missing the point of the thread.
My vote goes to the GT350. It's a very unique car with a great, unique motor.

>>16698463
if he just wants us to stop bullying him all he have to do is ask
>>16697552
Plus a new transmission, driveshaft and diff after 5,000 miles, new brakes and suspension.
Now all you're missing is the body, interior, resale value and prestige.
