Well it looks like my car that was built back on Feb 17th has finally shipped. I now have a rail car # and everything, I can't believe it. Lol! Anyways, what I want everyones oppinions on is whether to drive my car home from the dealer or trailer it. My dealer is 1,000 miles away from where I live, and when my car was originally due to arrive on Mar 9th the thought to drive it home had not even crossed my mind. But now that it will be the mid to end of April and the weather is great, I am thinking of road tripping it home. The allure of breaking it in on the mountain roads across North Carolina sounds like a lot of fun. Let me know all of your opinions on what you would do.

 

Trailer it and break it in when your are home. More fun then a long drive, not to mention all the McDonald's bags in the back seat and tickets because this stretch looks like there are no police

freakin Drive it for 4 shore.

 

can't imagine a better way to break it in than a nice cruise home.

 

"Trailer it like you stole it" just doesn't have the same ring to it.

DRIVE IT!!

 

I would have had it drop shipped to a local dealer but it's too late for that now. Drive it and take a video camera along to document the trip. Memories to last forever.

 

I would break it in! That way when i got it home I could have some real fun!

 

My first thought was trailer, but I really think you would enjoy it much much more at the end of a long trip if you drove it. Drive it for sure!

 

It's a BOSS, not a QUEEN!

D-R-I-V-E I-T !!!!!!!

You'll be GLAD you did!

 

Drive it dude

 

If mine wouldnt of been delivered I would of drove it. If you trailer it you're just going to be looking out of your rear view wishing you were driving it.

 

memories are not made on a trailer!

The only reason I trailer my GT500 (or my new LS when it comes) is to get it home from the track if I bend it!

Otherwise, every good memory my family has is from road time!

 

Drive it. Unless you're trying to keep it as a wrapper car. Which I doubt.

 

I drove mine 350 miles home, I loved it. It was 60 and sunny and I had a blast. I wanted to keep driving When I got home.

 

If I knew mine was going to be delayed and an April delivery, I would've drove it home from FL

 

I've made the drive from northern IL to South Carolina in a car by myself. Now it wasn't a sports car by any means, but the roads in North Carolina make me say that you need to drive it home. The scenery was just awesome, plus those winding roads are just awesome to drive on in an '05 grand am, so it would have to be that much better in your brand new boss I say drive it 100%...it's what the car is made for. But with a 1,000 mile+ drive, it really comes down to how much you do or do not enjoy driving. So that is where I would base my decision...is it something that you think sounds enjoyable?

 

Drive the wheels off.

 

Drive it! You may want to consider some blue tape for rock chips though.

 

Drive it! I love driving, though. Just respect your car & keep the trash out. It'll be fun!!
