Besides loving this car too much the only problem I have is after a nice weekend of weather and lots of window up/down I have a line etched in the glass on the outside from top to bottom. The car is going to the dealership in about an hour and they're supposed to fix the problem and try to buff out the scratch, if it won't buff out they're going to replace the window. Hopefully that won't happen since I'll have to pay to have that window retinted.
BTW - No problem fueling the car.

I was screaming up the Baltimore Beltway to tominium yesterday and had my GT over 80 the majority of the time and it drove great. Now if I could just get my wife to wear a blindfold when she's with me it would be better. It was kind od breazy too and there was not much buffetting.

PS. Had a guy in a ferrari testarosa makes a special stop to check out my ride in a parking lot up there. He was all over it.

I'm guessing Blet doesn't own an '05 GT. Most of us would have it listed as our car and probably pics available.

Has anyone else had any problems refueling? Everytime I put gas in the automatic shut off on the pump triggers. It takes forever to put gas in.
I've had the problem 2-3 times. AND I've tried pulling the nozzle out a little and it didn't help. Bad thing is that when it gets cold, instead of being able to lock down the fuel pump to fuel the car, I'll have to stand out in the cold and pump SLOOOOOWWWWLYYYYYY!

As for the Warranty issue, we weren't going to go with the extended warranty, but the factory one is 3 years or 36,000 miles, and we go 15,000 + in 1 year time. We were able to get a decent extended warranty for 76,000 miles for around $1,000, and it includes 2 years of free oil changes and tire rotations. Since we hang on to our vehicles forever (I've got a '78 I've had since '79, and I plan on keeping my new '05 forever), this was a good idea, especially since this is a totally redesigned car.

I already have 1,900 miles on her and I picked her up October 22.
