So went to the dealer today
 
So... Went to my local ford dealer today, test drove the 06 GT i was going to buy, and all i gotto say is that I really didn't fall in love with the car, I didn't get the special feeling or that attention feeling while driving it around, and when i was taking the turn's fast i didn't feel all to comfortable taking the turns fast. So I just walked out of the dealer because I didn't feel like spending $26k on a car I knew i wasn't going to enjoy for the next 2-3 years or so.

But, I went to the dealer right across the street and got to drive something I would of never expected me "test driving" and must I say I fell in love with the car. I was so amazed by how smooth, fast, and fun the car was and the awesome sound of the stock exhaust that I told the guy I wanted one. They mostly had automatic ones and the only 6spd they had was a color i didn't want. So i ordered a Black 06 Stick shift which is going to arive there on 5/6/2006. Can anyone try to guess what it is? :D

How was the torque from a dig with the 350z? They are pretty quick on the freeway, but I'm curious of the torque.

torque is... eh... i kill em off the line... they are fast lil suckers though... Racing them from a roll is a garenteed lose... at least for me...

the 2006 350z is rated at...
Horsepower 300 @ 6400 RPM
Torque (lft-lbs) 260 @ 4800 RPM

IMO spin... a eibach pro kit on the new 06 stang would make that corner just as good as the 350z:poke:

Good choice, they are a great overall performance car for the $$.
