yeah no silver for me...

Dan, on another note, here's the GT500's I promised you I'd have pics of sadly, they won't go on the 5.0 till December seeing as I don't even HAVE a car yet. LOL.








I also finally managed to upload the pics I took of the used kona 2012 I test drove a couple of weeks ago. I keep looking at this for now (and yes driving to the dealership too) and hope it holds me up till my actual car gets here Difference will be, decklid spoiler, brembo rims/brakes, strut tower, and of course, mine will not have dirt on it like this has.

But there is just something about this Kona blue that can't be explained in pics absolutely love this color













My favorite pic is below, since this is the primary reason why I got rid of the Z

Though I agree that the z looks better than the 5.0 in some aspects, there is so much more to a car than looks. Though looks are subjective, I feel the 5.0s looks satisfy me in different way. It's sexy in its own right

I thought I'd miss the attention the z got me, but i think that got a little old. I'm ready for a more subdued experience.

Oh I agree I need the car now.... What's sad is ill prolly get to drive it for 1 or 2 weeks before storing it. I will get it installed within a few days of getting it

Dan on another note, have u heard of the new mgw shifters for our cars? Read some reeeeally good stuff about it. Reviewed by svtperformance. Supposed to be a 100% improvement over stock in terms of feel, quality, and performance. 375 bucks tho. I'm debating.

The stang is pretty ugly, but performance and four seats are nice for the same dollar.

Sorry shado... I disagree. Looks are purely subjective. I look at a new GT and GT500 and I love it, but in a different way of when I looked at my Z.

That's fine. We can disagree. I posted my opinion. Not downing the stang. Just think it's ugly and imposing, like all mustangs.

I think the mustang looks just as good as the Z. Just Ferrari Vs Lambo different.

Different looks, but they both look awesome IMO:

Z has a more sleek and exotic look while Mustang has more of a muscular look.
