Hi,

I am new and gonna pull the on new 09 gt500 and have a few questions for the pros so please help =)

1) Is the clutch really hard and not smooth as so i heard?

2) what should i know about the TSB? dates etc

3) I know that the brand new is around 43k usd but why is pre-owned still around 36-38k? Is the resale value that good?
