It is so much fun I can't even describe it yet. I am going to baby this car like pretty much everyone on this board takes care of theirs, but man......I am gonna spend some money on tires. I have never owned a car with this much hp. It puts my old mustang to shame. Thank god for traction control. Power to the pavement is an issue I am going to have to address in better take-off habits and sticky tires.
