After my first day with this car....



This is so much nicer than my '89 GT ever was! So much more refined. I couldn't be happier!

Lovin' the new GT!

NBA, I'm in O.P., as well. I'll take some pics this weekend and post them. The tungsten really looks good. Don't know why it is a discontinued color. Sure is pretty with the bright, polished wheels.

Tell the wife it is perfectly normal for a new owner to sleep inside it the first night in the garage...that will make it feel more at home...

Congrats dude!

Grats on the new car.

I gotta admit, I loved the "other side of KC" comment.

Personally, I think the "jayhawk" name kinda gave it away, but being a MU grad I'll have to say maybe you could have picked a better name

j/k. but grats on the car.

Andretti

Thanks Andretti, not being much of an MU Tiger fan, I do like the Andretti name!

Yea you want to break the seats in so you won't have blisters on the first day you take it to work

You're so right over the '89 GT but even still compared to even the latest SN95 it's a big step forward.
