on an artic white 427 vert from Boardwalk. So far a great experience with Tim. It will be another couple of weeks before the car arrives in Georgia. I will post pictures then. I needed this car like I needed a hole in my head. My 2011 GS vert has less than 2000 miles.

Really looking forward to getting behind the wheel of this one.

Congratulations!
Your not alone. I traded my 2012 4LT GS vert with only 1100 miles in on my 60th Anniversary 427.
The 427 is so much more car than my GS, theres really no comparison. It has quickly become one of the all time favorite cars I have ever owned.
