That's a bad ride. Add red calipers!

Why the storage?

Did you feel like you were in Driver's ed trying to find the clutch sweet spot? I traded in an 03 cobra (six speed manual). I thought I instantly forgot how to drive a stick.

a little at first I guess..I was wondering when it was going to bite me in the butt....but it took no time to get used to it.......its soooo smooth...I can't beleive how awesome it is to drive. Do I REALLY own one ? holy crap.
you should feel the clutch on the Chevelle!....even though its a tremec the whole thing feels so antiquated compared to the GT....I know...I know apples and oranges......

Would you believe that it is a cable actuated shifter? Another forum member says it is smooth as buttah. Joey or Bony I forget. Too many posts too little time.

Congratulations. Beautiful car. A two-month wait is nothing. You'll be driving it before you know it.

Best Regards,
