Default New car; tips on driving
Just bought a 5.0 as a practice car for the 13 Shelby. It's my first manual and muscle car in general. Does anyone have any tips on driving, shifting and when to have sport mode on stuff like that?

if you have to ask those questions, sell the car.

You just bought a car as a practice car for the gt500? Woah wish I had that kind of money!

Welcome to the forums! Post that question up in the 2005-2012 general section and I'm sure you'll get a lot more knowledge replies from 5.0 owners.
