I sell Fords. Depends which trim of GT350. Two of the three Rs we’ve gotten are going to be tracked. One of them is a good enough driver to complain about the pads and fluid on the stock GT350R. As for the regular GT350 I’d say 10% of the ones I’ve sold see semi-regular track time.

It’s not.

Cafe. The Silverado/Sierra are the bread and butter.

Base trim be damned, that’s a straight up bargain for a 42k mile Raptor. If that was in California, that truck would be gone at 45k.

Curb weight is estimated to be between 3700-3900 lbs. Seems reasonable for a midsize SUV. Horsepower should be “enough” but I’d still want more from a 7 seater. What’s the point of this car are they attacking the Journey? How big is the 3rd row? Why offer this with a 3rd row AND the Atlas?

8spd maybe? Honestly, I’m unimpressed, 184hp from a 2.0L Turbo? Detuned much?

Interesting, many of those cars appear to have been acquired within the last two years. Note all the 7xxx### license plates.

Why is this car not pillarless!? Isn’t that the point of an 8 Series!?

Why is Shelby stuck in the 1990s? Those wheels are hideous, the hood scoop is over sculpted, the grill is obnoxious, and the front bumper looks out of place. 

I understand what you’re saying, but he’s penalizing the truck for not being the best at everything. It’s not designed as such. The look is part of why it’s so popular, but you’re right, 80% of them are never going to see dune use. All I was saying is that there are compromises to make it more offroad capable,…

Mine leaks oil, but it burns a quart of 20W-50 every 1200 miles anyway, so whatever

Somebody works for a Ford Dealer.

I understand the point of view. I’m just saying that it seems your expectations were higher than the results, and those expectations were misguided partially by it’s appearance.

Meh, let the profile gasket leak, too much work to fix it just for it to leak again.

David, I love your writing, and have learned a thing or tow about cars from your David Dissects videos, but I’m disappointed that someone so knowledgeable about vehicles overlooked some crucial facts about specialty vehicles.

This is pursuit rated, Cop Brakes, cop suspension, etc... The suspension is designed to handle curb jumping, standing water and some more stuff.

The M42 version of the 318i had a cartridge style filter on the top of the engine as well. It’s design is significantly newer than the M20.

I have a Z4, and I always thought of it as an adult Miata. If that’s true, then the Z3 would be the Senior Miata. I have love for the Miata and the Z3 (especially in Maldives Blue), but at 6'4", I won’t fit in either the Miata or Z3, so I ended up in a Z4. The 2.5i Manual version I have is quite fun, but would benefit…

Somebody on here once said - GM cars will run poorly longer than most cars run at all.

That’s pretty normal, my 2.7L will do the same thing under medium throttle applications.
