thanx guys. it mustve been divine intervention. i went there this morning and they just happened to have a 6 sp that was just off the truck. if you go on ebay, there are people selling the deposit on the MT for the car for thousands. i cant wait until the break-in is over. the six absolutely screams. but only up to 4 grand, of course
handles like it is on rails i still miss the Grinch though.......

I may try to swing by on Sunday, depends on the shopping schedule Jennifer has planned...
About the miles, don't you need a trip up to Chattanooga or Greenville next week...
I had 800 miles on my car when I fist dyno'd it... I do hope I can run by on Sunday and see you guys.

Nice ride man, and a damn good deal. Very nice for 37.
I just cant believe the freaking jackasses at the Nissan dealer try to charge 38-40k for a freaking Z Touring.
Does this thing have any room in the back? Is it useful at all? Hows the interior in comparison to the CLS and the Z?
Hows the Blows system, because the on in the Z is terrible?
Hot stuff. Props.
