I figured but I didn’t want to post in two places. Was hoping I’d get views from people that own one.Predicting vote will be 90/10. Not telling which way because you'll just vote opposite to dick me over.
I currently own a 2011 ROUSH and dealers have to use black book because of the non inclusion in blue book.Gotta consider resale also, there's no Blue Book for a Roush. It's an aftermarket package so the car will essentially be a modded 5.0. I looked @ Roush before I purchased my original gt500 back in 2010. My current R is now my 4th Shelby I've owned and I've never regretted my decision to go Shelby, haven't even considered Roush since.
I would love a gt500... but I know the price point they will be going for 115-120k is definitely out of my price range unless I get a really good job after I retire from the usaf in July 2020 after 24 years inOnly one will destroy the other in straight line performance.
Only one will one will appreciate in value over time (a LONG time).
How long do you plan to keep the car and what do you plan to do with it?
Why not wait for the GT500? In your other thread you indicated you didnt have interest in the GT500, yet you are considering a Roush Jackhammer? WTH??

Fair enough... do you plan to keep this next car for a while and what to you want to use it for?
I, personally, have 0 interest in a weekend toy 350/R based on what the car was designed for (track weapon). I’m more of a straight line, brutal acceleration type of guy. The 350 cars fail in that department vs their competition.
That said, I’d love to buy an R and sit on it for 30 years.

I just sold my 2017 Roush Mustang gt 727 hp packaged car. (It was 727hp before I added American Racing headers, full exhaust, hurst short throw shifter, mcLoed RXT clutch, full suspension upgrade, and a ton of other too long to list goodies) Bought it brand new. Only had 9,000 or so miles and was a serious rocket ship. True bad boy. Well when I bought my GT500, I could only get trade in value or sale it for barely more than a 2017 mustang gt. So for resale alone, I would definitely go for the GT350. And as some one else mentioned, its not an aftermarket car.Looking for some pro’s and cons against getting 2019 GT350R or a 2018 ROUSH Jackhammer both new will be roughly $72k
Fail? Fail at what? Fail at something that isn't the car's primary focus? It's competition? What in your opinion is the 350R's competition? R is a Track Monster. The best naturally aspirated shifting, handling, track car probably ever made at its price point.
I'm driving a failed 1320 R...that's ok with me.
Ah hahahahaha! Classic response from a classic Beta male.
Glad you’re ok with a life of 2nd place finishes.
