I just picked one up this week. I still have my 04 Cobra so I did not do the swap. Admittedly my time with the GT350 is limited. One test drive and the 2 hr ride home as it is still staying in the garage until winter is completely over here. Luckily I had a nice day to drive it back.
Compared to the Cobra its an entirely different level. The Cobra is raw and unrefined while the GT350 is totally the opposite. My Cobra makes 700 to the wheels and wants to kill you when you drive it just out of pure anger. You cant even compare the ride quality, tech, comfort compared with the Cobra. The Shelby just surpasses it in every way. If you want raw brutal power stick with the Cobra, the Shelby is lacking in big TQ down low but when that voodoo is singing at 7000+ RPM's its something else.
Honestly when I go out to the garage this summer and have the choice between taking out the Cobra or the Shelby I'm going to find it hard to take the Cobra. I know the Shelby is the new shiny toy to play with and my time with it is limited but I've owned 7 Mustangs total and this by far is the most impressive one I've ever had. Its one amazing piece of machinery
