Default Share: GT500 1st Time Driven

Well....I'm still stunned. I just drove a 2008 GT500 for the first time and what a machine.. Well balanced with power in all the right places. The sound of the charger is awsome. I think im in love..I sure hope my wife doesn't find out...hehe.. I just had to share. Until you have driven one you just don't know.. It was a pure driving experience and an absolute pleasure. One day I will own one. It is my new goal in life. Just had to share.

No bashing but I work for a stealership and she was dead on juice so they let me shake her up a bit.

And yes driving a GT500 Corba was a childhood dream of mine...

I thought the exhaust note was nice but could have been a bit louder. We have a roush 427R as well and it really puts the sound of the500 in prospective as well as my gt having JBA which are quite a bit louder than the 500. The biggest sound difference is really the charger. So so sweet to hear it when she start sucking in all that air...

Agreed. They do have plenty of power from the get go... that would be insane and a real challenge paying for all those forthcoming tickets.
