I just put the roush axle backs on. Very loud but it sounds soooo good. And driving at 80mph, it's quiet, even with my 3:73s

I think you are on the right track with black stripes and black wheels. Nice combo, and not so LOOK AT ME!!!!

Oh yeah! Even though it's almost double crank HP and huge torque gains, the new GT is actually very tame. I was expecting it to get real squirrely and beastly, but I guess I drive like a grandma. Except when I'm about to merge onto the freeway... it suddenly wakesupandwRRORORRRAWWWRRRRRRRRRRRRRRSSS!! Then I'm at 80mph until I peel my face off the back window. Other than that, my tuned V6 felt like it gave me better throttle response early on in the power band, but this one really lets the claws out when the pedal meets metal.

I'm glad you share my vision. Even though the white stripes pulls all the right heart strings, at the end of the day it feels rather trite. The black stripes are subtle enough where I can enjoy the original color without the stripes stealing the show.
