Even though the HP is about the same, from what I've read the 3.7 V6 does not have as much torque as the 4.6 engines. I would recommend finding a dealership that has both cars to test drive and do it back to back. I'm sure this would help with your decision. Good luck!

It will definitely be blue, black, or gray lol. And from doing some research it looks like the 3vs are easier to get into the high 12's with a few bolt ons and a driver mod, which is ultimately what I'm wanting out of the car. I'll still go test drive a 3.7 but I think I'm leaning towards a 3v.

OP, your sweet spot would be the 2010 GT. Same interior as the 2011+ but the 3v is more fun than the 3.7 v6.

Definitely drive both, and if the sales guy won't let you take the car for as long as you want, tell him you're not buying anything unless he lets you take it for a longer drive. They should have no concern about putting mileage on a used car. A smart sales guy will drop his pants for the sale if you tell him to. And drive the v6 before you drive any V8.

Yeah I got that salesman in trouble because the GM of the dealership called the next day and asked how my visit was and I told her I felt that the salesman didn't take me seriously and also let her know I could have bought the car that very day. The salesman claimed he thought I was out for a joyride because I'm a younger guy and wanted to drive a rwd stick shift sports car... Lmao if I wanted a joyride I would at least drive a 5.0 or something like a vette...

See, you answered your own question, if you want fun get a V8.

Well looks like a change of plans... The other night I was out playing and my T5 let go. I lost 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and reverse. So I figure I may as well keep it and make a toy out of it. So on the note, does anyone have a discount code for american muscle? Wanting to order the T5Z from them.
