Hi everyone! NW Indiana guy with a new 17 GT350 I bought last week(02/08/18). Snow hit the next day so I'll look forward to driving her when the weather gets warm and dry.

Welcome to the sight and great car! I don’t know what I’d do if I had to park my car for the Winter. Here I sit worried about a little rain, I can only imagine our car is rough in a few inches of snow.

Welcome fellow Ruby Red midwest owner...Yes, sitting in storage in for the winter does suck. Hey, the days are at least getting longer

I got my 2017 last April and its been a blast to drive up till it was time to put it down for winter...

that's a good looking paint combo.
get a clear bra wrap and protect that awesome paint!
enjoy.

Welcome and Congrats! I really like that Black Roof Top.

Welcome Jest, great and informative forum here! Sweet looking GT 350, now you and DTorres match Hey, I thought Ford was no longer offering the full black roof with OTS, that for 2017 you had to get one or the other? Perhaps that was a change for 2018?

PS. Amazing how clean/shiny your wheels look, mine are generally filthy within 20 miles of washing

PSS. Be sure and check out the thread(s) on the oil separator for the passenger side EGR set up. Inexpensive and super easy install as these engines do tend to pass a lot of blow by back into the intake (cheap insurance) and actually recommended by Ford in the GT350 Owners supplement. Enjoy your new ride, the exhaust note is sooooo addictive, you won't even remember you have tunes in the car

What is the definition of Hell?... buying a new Shelby and being snowed in for the winter so you can't drive it!
Sorry, just a little humor from San Diego..

Beautiful car. I agree, get a PPF asap. Ford paint chips like crazy. Mine is in the shop right now getting it installed.
As for the snow, that has got to suck! Spring is right around the corner though. Just picked mine up myself, then found out I'm deploying. So it'll be in the garage, all alone, until the end of summer.
