Love the cue ball shift ****, the short throws, and the sound of that engine! It makes my morning everytime I fire it up!

I was also very impressed with how well it performed on the track.

Yeah same here but I think I'm gonna subscribe to it, it's really nice.

As for my favorite feature? The ability to make a phone call without ever taking your hands off the wheel or taking your phone out of your pocket.

Same here. I was going to go ahead and buy the lifetime membership when the trial is up but now that I can stream Pandora to Sync via the iphone Im having second thoughts.

Sync is just an all around bad *** upgrade.

When the 6 months is almost up, they will call you. Remember to play hard-ball. Don't take the first, second or third deal. Act like you're disinterested. You may eventually get a real good deal on the fees. My wife does this with the Caddie and always gets killer deals.

Cheers.

Cops pulling me over for 60 in a 40, and giving me a ticket instead for a seat belt violation, then telling me to haul *** when I pull away so they can hear the engine. Grabber blue, with 15% tint and glass roof is such a head turner. Cant wait to drop it and add CAI & Tune.

Being able to COMMAND the freeway at will.

A G35 Sedan was riding my bumper on the freeway today. Soon as a gap opened up I dropped her into 5th and he was a dot in my rear view. I was prolly at like 25% throttle too.

Maybe I'd have a favorite feature someday if I ever get mine.

I don't have a 5.0 so I hope I'm "allowed" to post in this thread but here's a couple nice shots of my GR, the one option that will possibly keep me out of a Boss because I am completely spoiled. :-(

Depends on the day, but some things I really like vs. the '09 GT I traded for it (all I think duplicates to what others have said, but oh well):
- The smooth/quiet ride (without any sacrifice of ultimate performance when you want it)
- Sync... can't imagine being without it now
- The Glass Roof
- The 401a package shift **** and striped seats
- The "second wind" of power the car gets at ~4000 RPM up
