I thought about getting the GG color. But my brother has a GG Lancer GTS and a silver Camaro Z28. Dark green was up there, but didn't feel like another dark car.

He's had a white one. I got to see it last Winged Warrior race.

We used to have the auto-resize -- not working? I have Chrome -- its not resizing.

I don't think we've ever had auto-resize. If we did, it's never worked in my browser.

Please do not hate me but should opted for the V8, it's what defines these cars otherwise they are just Ken dolls. All looks and no, well you know what.

Still a nice car but for a V6 DD I believe the Z, even used, would have been a better choice. G35/37 as well.



But as the old saying goes, if you are happy....

For the options I have and wanted the ~3k price increase for 100 hp and worse MPG, just could not justify it. And I drive a ton across the US. 87 oct > 93 oct

305 hp is just about the same as the 2010 GT! And superchargers and twin-turbos are in the works from a few shops.

370z and G37 were 10k+ more. And the Z had no space inside. Plus less discounts for me from Nissan.

Those Pirelli tires are going to be AWESOME in Michigan... I'll look for your car in the ditch when I visit my folks over christmas.

I do really like the new mustangs... makes me wish I had waited for a 5.0.

It will not take long before the aftermarket catches up with the new V6. There were some offerings with the older 4.0 litre motors, but with this new motor, it's going to be interesting. Is the new Mustang (with V6) lighter than last years V8?
