It has a unique wail of an exhaust sound and a high revving 8250 rpm redline. This is one hell of an engine, especially for a Mustang.
It's like an S65 with torque, even more power...and a better sound (intake sound is fantastic on the S65, but the chainsaw being destroyed by chainsaws being destroyed by fire and explosives being destroyed by a black hole (science notwithstanding) sound is WAY cooler) . Unfortunately, I think the GT350 is a North America-only thing...
