AndyGJ Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 I know it is very early to be asking this question, but I sit here with limited funds and a desire to have some upgrades on my present SGT to make it a better track worthy vehicle. I'm also limited to how and where I can use it on a track since it is a convertible, and most of the time I'm riding around lately with the top UP. I saw the 2016 GT350, and love the concept / prototype. I definitely want to see the real thing in person in late 2015 when it is released...and the new body style is growing on me. So here it is....the $64 question: IF YOU COULD HAVE ONE OF THESE TWO, WHICH WOULD YOU CHOOSE? Thanks for your input, Andy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Patten Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 That's easy - the SGT. Please send the $64 to me - I need it so I can keep racing my SGT! Thank you, KP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobjshelbys Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 For 64k I'd like a hawk on a snake for the 2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilmor Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 I would keep the Shelby GT. Or it will someday become this car: ----> "I sure wish I hadn't sold that". Not to mention, "limited funds" does not seem to equate to the purchase of a $64K car from a practical standpoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViperNC Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 GT350 all the way for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyGJ Posted December 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 I didn't mean to imply that the GT350 would cost $64k, i just said the " $64 Question" as an expression. If I sold my SGT i bet it would cost $25,000 to upgrade to the GT350....still a ton of money. And, yes Ilmor, that's my problem with letting go of the SGT. I can almost promise at some point down the road i would have major sellers remorse! If only money grew on trees......... Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheKurgan Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 The SGT will never go anywhere. Easy choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyGJ Posted December 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 Which event? Hooked on driving?Hey Viper, It's a private track event at Roebling Road Jan 10th and 11th. Twenty of us rent the track out for the entire weekend...thats the only way a convertible can get ought there at speed and no racing roll bar/cage. It's swim at your own risk! That's one reason to consider a new ride. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Patten Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 Hey Kevin, Heading back to Roebling Road track in 3 weeks!! Can hardly wait. Does that mean I'm not getting the $64 - that you're spending it on seat time. That's OK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twitch43 Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 I'd keep the SGT. I love the looks of the 350 so far, but the initial price tag sure makes it expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoDakMac Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 I am thinking of purchasing a 2016 GT350 if I can find one without a $10 or $20K dealer markup, which will be a deal breaker. I'll keep my 07 SGT. I am lucky to also have a 2012 Boss 302, which is the most impressive Mustang I have ever driven. It will stay home too. I am old and am spending my kids inheritance on Mustangs. They can sell them when I am in the "home" and they have taken away my keys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
07SGT0517 Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 I will wait a few years and let someone else pay the premium for it, just like I did with my SGT. So 2018/2019 I will start looking at getting one with 10-15k miles. By then I should have the motor rebuilt on the SGT and maybe a roll cage installed.
