I loved my V6, but this GT is pretty awesome and I love being topless!!

I am normally not a big fan of white, but with this interior, it looks nice... I do miss my 5-speed, but this auto is pretty decent and after I get a CAI and tune in the sucker, should be even better!

Check her out! She won't stay stock for long, that's for sure...

Stunning!!!!!!! White and red for a vert is PERFECT

Yes! Especially with the weather we have been having here... It's been in the upper 60's to low 70's since last week with no sign of getting colder any time soon!

This weekend I'll be putting the sequentials back on, painting the calipers, putting my pony caps back on and giving it a good cleaning/protecting!

Very well!

I don't really care for the stock shift points (you're in 4th gear by like 35 mph), but the get up and go more than makes up for that! I hit the gas in the GT and it jumps on it (there is a slight hesitation, but the tune will get rid of that)... My V6 did too, but not as much as the GT!

I miss shifting and still reach for the phantom clutch on occassion, but overall, the auto isn't too bad... If given the choice, I would have still wanted the 5-speed in the GT, but the auto definitely isn't a slouch, that's for sure!
