My ZL1 has a garage partner 2018 GT350R

I have been shopping for a while & found a new 2018 Knoa Blue GT350R in San Jose. Capital Ford was willing to deal on a rainy Super Bowel Sunday. This R is fully optioned out. I feel extremely blessed. I’m very fortunate. ZL will be my daily driver now.

They are killer looking cars. Seriously debated one before I landed the Z. They sound insane.

I don't see how you see out of the back window with that big wing in the way. It looks like the visibility that people say about the ZL1 is worse in the GT350R

I had a 2018 ZL1 1LE before I traded in it for the A10. The visibility concern is not even comparable with the Camaro. I do not have any visibility issues. I can actually see out of the mustang.

Congrats! Enjoy.

The sound exhaust is addicting. R handling just has so much Percision. I’m actually impressed with the drivability. Night & day from the ZL1 1LE.

I appreciate it. Ford does not have the onstar app or anything. If I get locked out I will be SOL.

I believe ford does have their own version of it if I’m not mistaken

I think they do. The Shelby did not get it. The Premium package GT most likely has it.

You have one as well. Beautiful ZL1 1LE!!

Dude I'm jealous I too was between the Zl1 and the fordgt350. That blue you got with the metallic dark gray center stripe is sick. But my daily is my F150 platinum. Gotta have 4wd for the winter. Soo there is a sync app for the Ford's. You just gotta download and set it up. It works just like the OnStar. I actually prefer the sync.
Congrats on your two beautiful rides!!!

Killer ride.
I looked at a couple when I was shopping. Couple reasons that stopped me.
Ford up here in Canada wanted like 20gs over MSRP. I laughed and went looking at Red Eyes, Vettes and ZL1s.
Still you got a great cat. Love that Blue.
Enjoy my friend.

Congrats!!

I briefly looked at regular GT350's before I got my 1LE. One of the biggest drawbacks for me is they do not offer rev matching on them. Pretty dumb I think, as they do put it on the regular GT's
