Default Picked up a 5.0 this weekend

Well I went to the dealership to get pre approved before I sold my truck and they had exactly what I wanted on the lot... A 2014 black 5.0 with 3:73s, brembos, in a manual..it has the recaro seats too.
I ended up buying it. Fortunately I sold my truck the next day.

I love it. The power is there in every gear, I can't wait to get my cai and tune.
I ordered a few things for it tonight...
The only thing I didn't get that I wanted is the track apps. It's probably a good thing tho, they would just encourage me to speed. Lol

Here's a few pics. I got my windows tinted yesterday, these pics were taken before the tint. I did 5% all round, I love it.

And a few of the dodge I sold.
I put new wheels and tires on it right before I decided to sell it

Nice! Mine is black as well, but auto, non Brembo. Fun! I do wish I had your rims vs the plain jane stocks I got.

Very nice! Maybe you should put a few miles on it before installing a CAI and tune? Just to make sure it's solid.

Good advise, I'd take it through the twisty's and test the suspension too.

Nice Car, is this just a Brembo (option 55D) or is it a Track Pack (55R)?
Will be on the window sticker... other dead giveaway is black painted rear end with finned aluminum differential cover.

Thanks guys.
I'm going to wait a few months on the cai.
The window sticker says track package and the diff has the aluminium finned cover!
Can't wait for my exhaust to get here!
