Big Question GT350 or GT500?

One is a high power grand tourer with the heart of a muscle car and more power than a Ferrari Enzo. The other is the closest a Mustang has ever been to a high strung sports car with an engine that sounds better than Beethoven’s 9th symphony.

Which would you buy any why?

350 hands down. I’ve never seen the high power cobras as much more than one trick ponies that can be accomplished cheaper on your own.

2012 GT500 it just over all does it for me. Really the only Mustang I’d want to spend the money on.

the GT350. it’s a far better balanced car than the GT500. The GT500 is all about brute force. in the real world of street tires, there’s only so fast you can accelerate with the traction available.

GT350 without a doubt. That V8 is something truly special.

GT350. I can’t control that much power very well and I don’tcare about creature comforts too much. More power and stuff wouldn’t make it much better for me.

GT350. Primarily because I already have an S197 and adding a supercharger would give me pretty much the same experience.

GT350. Speaking from experience the S550 is just that much better of a car than the S197

Gt 500 if you want a drag strip monster and street capable cruiser. Gt 350 if you want to track it and possible DD duties.

Also I’d mod the hell out of that Gt 500. The 350 I don’t think so.

The flat plane is something you just can’t do in the aftermarket for the same price

Not the only one I want to spend money on. But the 2012 GT500 is one of my absolute drew cars

Nothing like jumping on the 650hp train about 4 years after Ford

All depends on the situation. Do I wanna have all the power to eat everything on the street or do I wanna take the moutain pass on hwy 65 in Arkansas and tear it up.
