Do the following immediately: Tell the dealership to NOT attach a front license plate Tell the dealership to NOT stick any of their dealership logos or any other crap on the back of the car. Enjoy. (Personally I'd tell them not to wash it so you can clay bar it carefully yourself and get off all the rail dust, but that's your call) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burnedgt500 Posted September 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 :bandance: :happy feet: Ok guys I have now put over 500 mile on it this weekend just driving around. I only have one thing to say! DAMN THIS BITCH IS FAST! It is one awesom car and I wish everyone had a chance to drive something like it. :happy feet: :bandance: Ok now I am off again. I cant stop driving it. It is one hell of a car. It is amazing how a Beautiful car can make My UGLY ass look so good. I can not beleive the people checking me out Icluding the Women!

I can not beleive the people checking me out Icluding the Women! burnedGT500, Congrats man! I can't wait for mine! The one I'm keeping is the G O vert, but I went with tungsten stripes on the rockers to keep it subtle. The color is SOOOOOO close to Yellow, and with the Black vert top, reflects my Steeler mania! (No, not a seasonal fan, been a die hard Steelers fan for pushing 40 years now.) How does it look in the sunlight? Is it reflective? Don't know about the ladies checking me out, might PO the wife. But then again, she'll be driving it too, hmmmm, wait a minute, that may not be so good either... Congrats again! Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnedgt500 Posted September 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 Mike you ask how it looks in the SunLight? Well lets just say its just about as BRIGHT as the Sun. It is very stunning and then to put the Bright White stripes over the top over the just makes the color really POP! I think it looks best in Sunlight at night it does not have the same appeal. But thats ok because I am early day kind of Guy. I get up early and go to bed early. You know I have always loved Yellow cars with black stripes I never even thought about White stripes and the White just makes the car so stunning I am glad I didn't design the car because I never would had put the 2 colors together. But I am so glad they did. I was very nervous about ordering the Grabber Orange. It scared me to death because I had never seen this color on a car before. Now I am so glad I had the balls to go ahead and get it. The G/O Is the best looking color out of all of the options. (It's just my opinion guys) I would also like to add the Shaker 1000 is worth every penny it tacked on to the MSRP. Iha to work with some and figure it out but I love it. However It could use a little more trebile It needs a tweeter or 2. It has an awesom amount of Bass It really shakes the car. Well I have Jury Duty this week. So I won't get to drive it much but the 500 mile over the week end did me good. you guys have a great week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about anyone else (I'm sure this is probably an unpopular opinion) but I'm already a little tired of the red and white combo. They are great cars but a dime a dozen (plus ADM of course!)
