Not a lot of people bring the GT350 and SVT GT500 (2013/14) into the same conversation. Mostly because they're two different eras and two different models. However, in this current market both of them sell for just about the same price. So I thought it'd interesting to compare the two since I'm fortunate enough to own em' both. This is SVT vs. Ford Performance, two completely different generations with different driving behaviors. And both are incredible value! Which one would you take?

Never owned or driven either, but I would go with the GT500. I love the S197 (have a full bolt-on 2014 GT) & I think the true muscle car feel with the solid rear, like you mentioned is thrilling. I like feeling like it's moreso my driving skills & less so the cars tech. I did add some lowering springs, shocks/struts & panhard bar to get more hanging potential though. Thanks for the vid, one day. I'd also go for a Boss 302 instead, my dream car.

I have the 2013 boss 302 and a 2017 gt350. Comparable cars from different eras. The boss is raw and makes you earn it but will still carve up a windy road. The gt350 is just so dialed and easier to drive. They both are so fun

I'll take 662 Horsepower and a solid rear axle all day long! I agree with you as far as the last true muscle car. I feel like the 15s are more European style.

Great video, it is extremely informative since you own both and know/love each differently, like kids.

I love that you did this video! I have 2014 GT500. Picked it up in 2013. The GT350 made its debut and I remember sitting in it on the showroom floor and thought if this was the “R” I might have to do something about this and trade in my GT500. I couldn’t get my hands on the “R” and kept my GT500. I still have her till this day. But a buddy bought an “R” and put new valves and valve springs and she revs to 12,000 RPM! He shifts it at 11,800! Truly incredible!

This is a well crafted video. The 13-14 is still a sick ride, some 10 years after it was developed.

awesome camera cuts in the beginning man!

Give us a drag race of the two. Normally don’t like all the chat but you kept it interesting. 👍

Great review of both cars. 2 of my all time favs. While the 662 hp of the 500 is swell. I’d definitely take the 350 any day. The combo of speed, power and drives great in all aspects is king for me. Not to mention, nothing sounds like a GT350, the exhaust note is pure exctasy!!

Great video comparing these 2 awesome vehicles. I own a 2016 GT350R and just recently picked up a 2013 GT500 convertible in Red Candy Metallic. There can’t be too many of us that own these 2 vehicles! Keep the great vids coming. Thanks 👍👌👏

Pick One..... A very tough choice, with having a 03 Cobra & 500 I feel you. The 500 is just a easy going daily but with power at the tap of your foot. The Termi is just loud and my foot acts like 20lbs weights every time I drive. I guess it's the reason for having both, I might never got my foxbody back on the road with having them...lol

The gt350 was also made by Ford performance (which used to be svt and svt and team rs in Europe combined to create Ford performance so it's essentially the newer version of the same thing). I know this because i have a 2016 fiesta st and in the factory handbook it tells the story about how svt and team rs came together to create Ford performance which is their worldwide performance decision within Ford. My 16 was the first year after they switched in 2015 so it tells about it in the supplemental handbook that comes with the sts not sure if any of the newer ones after 16 have it in there or not.

I’ve wanted a 13-14 GT 500 since they hit the market. Oddly enough, when I was ready to buy another car, I went with a 16 GT (performance pack). The S 550 is just a better platform. I figured I’d just add boost later on.
