Don't park under any peach trees to avoid dents and goo. Welcome to the group. Don't punch it with the wheel turned.

Don't punch it with the wheel turned.

Unless you want to go around in circles. Do it in wide open spaces with no curbs or light poles nearby :)

I punch it in straight lines and she breaks loose in almost any gear - LOL I guess 800 WHP will do that huh? :)

Congrats from another GT noob! Your 05 is one of 154 silver GTs; 112 of which have full stripes; 38 with red calipers; 96 with forged wheels; 104 with McIntosh audio.

I hope it will be a driver. ;-)

Nice car. Congratulations. When you feel like a ride into the mtns., give us a yell, we're just over the hill near Maryville and come down 411 and 129 plenty. We also get down to Road Atlanta some. Have fun.

Glad you took the plunge. I've had mine over a year and the car best choice I've made. Have a good service place for fluid changes ect. but he is on the southside.

Thanks for the tip on the service. What seems to be the key? Factory trained GT techs?

Congratulations on the car. You will definitely love it. It's unlike any other. Great color - and brand new too. Shelby must have his time-machine working again.
Oh, and don't let these guys tell you that only the red ones are fast. But take your time finding out..

If you buy one of every color, you're sure to own the fastest color - and then you'll find out it's a red one (lol). :thumbsup
