Oooh, that's harsh.

Guy has no F%cking Idea...... GM trimmed weight, did extensive testing on the exhaust system (Hence NPP) and has a better handlin car.....

He seemed to like the Lightweight components but then not impressed at the end.

So he's saying that if you're gonna mod a 1LE, he's not impressed? Does he think those components won't last?

You can tell there is A TON of Ford bias with that guy.

He didn't sound like a guy going in with an open mind. There was a biased tone from the very beginning. Constructive criticism is good, but it seemed like he was complaining about the engineering aspects that gave the car an edge over the competition. You can't always judge a part by the way it looks.

If those parts end up breaking at some point in the future, then we can maybe revisit and say "ok this guy was on the right track", but until then...whatever.

I watched his video a few times, and he mostly had praise for the 6th Gen Camaro, and mostly criticism for the Mustang. And just for reference he is comparing it to his old GT350.

Being a GT350 owner myself I understand his criticisms of the car especially the front caliper to rim clearance, and those troublesome angled screws for the front splitter. I have not explored the underbody to see how it is setup.

The only real criticisms of the 1LE were the exhaust, and the ease of modding underbody components, because in his eyes GM has already engineered the car so much that to go behind them and upgrade parts would take more work.

He thinks Ford screwed up the GT350
