Default Do not test drive a 2011 GT

LOL I did yesterday and wow! I want one and almost traded mine in and rode home in it. However, my fiancee would kill me. But, I almost didn't care. So don't test drive one. You will considering selling your soul.

Yea, if I get a new 2011, it wont be at the sake of my 2007.
I would new get out of her what I have in to her if I sold her.
On another note, the new marrows are kinda tasty.
Dont test drive one of them on the same day you test
drive the stang or you might just drive over to the dark side...

My friend just got a 2010 Camaro SS. I took it for a little test drive. The interior is nice but major blind spots. The clutch is feather light, took a few seconds to get use to. It must be the gearing, but take off doesn't seem as quick as my car, but then again I have 4.10s.
Good point on not test driving a 2011 Mustang. I am afraid to in that I would want one.

Last October I test drove a Camaro SS, nice car..impressive.
The following week, I test drove a GT, drove it home.

I test drove an SS. I'm 6'1" and couldn't see out of it to save my life. Still, pretty quick for a 2 door sedan...

Fiancee? Life isn't complete until you are married, then it's over.

I've been looking at them sitting on the dealer's lots here....but that's as far as I am going. My insurance lady is going to attack me if I even consider another one.

Well as soon as I am done with my Korean assignment, I am going home and test driving one. I already know I want one. I need something with a back seat (I have a son). So I have started to lurk around this forum reading all I can. I am not going to trade, I just need a second form of transportation and why not something else American made and is fun to drive.

Gonna stick with the 03 for now. My wife would kill me if I tell her I wanted a new car. First thing she would say "what about my new car", lol..
