Is the Shelby GT350 the Top American Muscle Car???

Hello everyone, I hope that you have enjoyed my past couple of reviews. We have been lucky enough to go in depth with a few incredible cars such as the GT3RS and 599 60th anniversary, and the WRX. We have another super car review to get into today. It is the 2017 Shelby GT350. Before we go over some aftermarket features, lets dive into some of the specs, and options. First of all, the engine is a 5.2 liter V8 with 42 valves, producing about 526 horsepower. The Gt350 can hit 429 lb ft of torque at 4750 rpm. The transmission is a 6-speed manual which helps control this car. Without any extra weight, the GT350 weighs 3,760 lbs, which isn't that light. The V8 helps power this car to a top speed of 186 miles per hour. With the 0-60 time being 4.1 seconds, the GT350 is quick for being so heavy. The GT350 also has a 0-100 time of just 12.1 seconds and a quarter mile time of only 12.6 seconds traveling at 119 miles per hour. The 2017 GT350 can brake from 60 to 0 miles per hour in just 99 feet. Brand new, the 2017 GT350 costs a total of 48,500 US dollars including a destination fee. Some factory colors that you could choose for the GT350 are Avalanche Grey, Grabber Blue, Lightning Blue Metallic, Magnetic Metallic, Ruby Red Metallic Tinted Clearcoat, and the Triple Yellow Tri-Coat. Some stock interior colors are Black with a red stripe, Black with white accents, Lightning blue with black stripes, White with black accents, and White with red racing stripes. In 2017, 7,115 Shelby GT350's were made. 1,422 were Black, 1,347 were White, 1,037 were Blue, 916 were metallic 829 were Gray and 146 were Yellow. Along with these color, 522 were Racing Red and 480 were Ruby Red. These are all of the stock facts, specs, features and options of the 2017 Shelby GT350. Now that we have went in depth with the specs, we will move onto what the owner has done to this crazy muscle car. First of all the color is not factory. It is actually wrapped red and used to be gray with a blue stripe. The resonators have also been deleted. Coming up, this GT350 plans plans on getting a tune and possibly some downpipes. Along with these upcoming upgrades, this GT350 also plans on getting a pair of aftermarket rims. With these crazy stats and choices, this car is a great car that is not to expensive. In the video, the owner was cool enough to give a rev to show how the cars from Buffalo really are. I am glad that I got to see this car and if you enjoyed this review, then comment what you think and follow my Instagram @RyanJarembek for some more super car pictures.
