If you're going to spend 55-60k you might want to consider an M3. That price point is creeping into its territory.

Yeah...that just goes to show you the m3 is overpriced.

He can't get the BOSS. It's like the Nismo... you can't option it out with all of the nice stuff. Pretty basic on the inside.

True on the 2012. Steve, I think the 2013 is available with options and creature comforts like HID's/nav, etc. I might be wrong. I also love the new color options.

Same with me. Although, I did offer, wife says no. She wants no part of it in case she scuffs it, scratches it... etc..... :D

:werd: Kindda like that A5 I test drove when I was debating which car to get. Talk about overpriced. Yeah it's sexy on the outside and inside... but man, talk about a boat. That thing drove terribly. And was slow. Our Z's and 5.0's cost HALF that and is 30times more fun to drive.

However, anyone who doubts a Shelby should just go drive one. I did, and almost bought one.

My boss has an A5. It's a sleek car, nice inside, and relatively practical for a coupe. It is definitely down on power, though. They are rated to around 215hp or so.

lol German cars overpriced?

Coming up in the news, water is reportedly wet, and THIS JUST IN - The sky is occasionally blue!

A blue sky? Now thats just a myth. Everyone knows the sky is grey

Lemers, here's something else to entice you. Found these at Toys r Us the other day. Last one, in my color too, no less. Pretty sweet replica. Mirrors and antenna are rubber and flexible so they don't break :D

Saw the new A7 on the road on the road earlier this week. That thing was freaking sexy!

Yes most definitely. I have a room of all diecast models, etc... on display in a glass case/shelf. I love dusting them, cleaning them, and playing with them :) My son does too.

Besides, the box on this particular model was already pretty beat up too. So no way I was displaying that... lol.

where can I find out more about this 5.0 + SC option, is it on the ford website? Can you build a car online with it added?

You would have to do it through the dealer. It's a dealer installed option that you could lump in with the purchase price of the car.

Okay, so where can you find the specs on the SC package?

They should have details on the Ford Racing website since the parts are all FRPP.
