Hahaha.
You guys are great.

The deal was GREAT. lets just say with the trade in and a small down payment I was able to keep my monthly payments almost exactly the same!

The pics will come after I wash her this week.
She was spotless when I bought her but those bugs have a tendency to make your car dirty on a highway trip.
Seems like they were more attracted to the GT500 too lol.

Oh another funny thing.
The young man that sold it (after working the deal with the sales manager), told me that he was going to test drive my old car right after I left
and probably buy it that day! Nice complement no doubt!

It's a 2008? Be sure to check and make sure it doesn't have the supercharger rotor problem that plagued many 2008s. I think the production run of the affected units was with a build date from November 2007 - February 2008.

Congrats and I am sure you will enjoy the new car. The only feeling better than buying one is paying it off lol. I am sure there are many 500's like yours and the chap that picked his up with 558 miles. Hell mine is 2 years old and the odo reads 1600 miles and the tires have not been spun once. The other nice thing is I am sure like mine yours has not had the motor monkeed with. Again congrats
