I have driven the SS 1LE, it's a great car. Have not been able to drive a GT350 to compare. But the new (gen6) SS 1LE puts in the same lap times that the gen5 Z28 did at the GM test track. She's a bad car.

Is the visibility still ****? Yah I know they are really good, I'm just team blue oval. They really do have that SS 1LE at a really competitive price.

Oh! I got this LOL.
This should be an easy question to answer. A Mustang person will not be near has happy with an Evo and vise versa. You should definitely drive both and find which you like better. It should be pretty obvious which direction you are leaning.
The cars are typically rather polarizing and not many people would have much decision choosing between the two.

You get used to it out the front. Looking over either shoulder is pretty much a joke though...lol

go to 3.18, I chase one around the track for a few laps, I'm only pushing 330 hp and he had the track pack. I like them, no back seat though, a good set of track tyres and suspension kit they would go well

Evo 9 will continue to build value and has 4 doors for your kid. Get the EVO anyone can go out and buy the next newer Mustang... Warranty is nice though with a new car

Check your settings. Your front view is all washed out. If youre using a GPRO there are settings to correct that.

Good job out there on the track

Mustang GT350 or EVO 9.

I don't even know why this comparison is under consideration.

The Gt350 Voodoo engine sounds amazing at 8000rpm.

Set your focus for the center of the windshield so the phone meters light from there instead of the cabin.

I disagree with the whole world on this. Having ridden in one on the track and heard it go by on the straights at full tilt, I think the voodoo engine is one the worlds worst sounding performance engines. Just cause it had a flat plane crank doesn't make it sound like a ferrari (there was a 458 at that same track day and it made my knees go weak everytime it went past on the straight).

that being said, for a street car I'd take the GT350 over an Evo 9. for a car thats track only or a street car that will see lots of track duty, I'd take the evo, mostly from the cost of consumables point of view. If its a cost no object scenario... I'd have both... or a regular GT with mods cause it has an engine that sounds awesome. basically what Vorshlag is doing (but with different coilovers):
