Lately I’ve been thinking maybe I made the wrong choice going from an SS to an SS 1le and have been considering selling my car for a 13/14 GT500. Appreciate any input I get!

I'm just trying to understand why you would want a 13/14 GT 500 aside from the power? That platform really underperformed and it was constantly heatsoaked even after about 2-3 laps compared to the 5th gen Z/28 in a 3 lap road course race.
While I've not personally owned the GT500, I've ridden/driven several and have many friends with modded S197 GTs.
Truthfully, I can certainly understand perhaps regretting the 1LE just because it's more road course oriented versus a drag style car. Is that what you're looking for here?
