This too. 80-90hp with pulley, intake, tune and exhaust.

What kind of exhaust would add some gains and sound better the what is on it. I gotta say! The factory exhaust on these cars sounds amazing! I also could still just be on a new car high though!

Very decent price with those miles. I have seen 2012s going for a little more but with ~40k miles; so IMHO you got a good deal.

Just drive it and enjoy it. Trying to add more power why? I can barely handle ~450hp, do you really need more than the 500+ you have now? Not trying to rain on your parade, but if you could wave a magic wand, how much hp is enough? 600? 800? 1000?

Most muscle car owners want 'more', but you just got this wonderful ride... Spend more time waxing it than trying to add more power.

Gorgeous car. I almost bought nearly the same thing 2 weeks ago as a second car. I was sooooo tempted (to dig into house fund) but resisted LOL!

I will live vicariously through you and your posts for now

Now that's great advice!

Makes the $48,000 the dealer near me wanted a couple years ago for a brand new 12 convertible GT500 seem like a real bargain.
