Me too. I've been considering a "play" car, so the GT 500 or the ZL1 are in the cross-hairs. Everything I read and see says the ZL1, overall, is the car to go with.

Both fantastic cars but I'd lean more towards the GT500, I think I like the style a bit more.

YEA! Post #16,000 is in my own thread!


^^^ Yes, for raw power, the GT 500 is it.

I think you should do what you told me about when I shot your car when it comes to the Bull.

Steve....I was checking some prices on the lambo for you....i know you dont like a Gallardo since it does not have the scissor doors but you can get a 05-06 Gallardo with ~8K miles for 85K

while i was at it, i checked some prices on the Maserati Gransturismo....65-70K for a decently used on

MEKO-actually I'm driving something similar to this right now!

I'm on my honeymoon in Monterey Bay, California. The rental car place gave us a silver Mustang convertible for the week!

I'm only on for a few minutes tonight. I'll be back next Monday night full time again!

I've got a picture of the Mustang that I'll post next week!

We'll probably have to wait for the new pics with the new T4i since he only used it to document the consummation of the marriage!!!

am guessing its a 12....usually rental car companies get the models a in a little later....

now unless FORD really wants people to "rent" their brand new cars....

It's a '13. The '12s don't have the LEDs on the outside half of the headlights.

The LED's are an option I think. I don't think rental cars would have that option. Those look just like my buddys 12.

I'm waiting for my Macbook Pro to download Mountain Lion, so I haven't downloaded all my pictures yet. But, for Shoeface, here was our Itinerary.....


--Sunday-Alcatraz
--Monday-city tour of San Francisco, Sausolito and the Golden Gate Bridge
--Tuesday-drive the Pacific Coast Highway to Monterey
--Wednesday-5 hours at the world-class Aquarium in Monterey
--Thursday-drive further down the PCH to San Simeon. Saw the elephant sea lions on the way!
--Friday-6 hours at the Hearst Castle!......all I can say is WOW!
--Saturday-drove back north on the Pacific Coast Highway to Carmel. Powershopped that afternoon and took a bunch of pictures of Cars (Exotics) of Carmel.....ask Tyler-he has the pictures via Text.
--Sunday-drove back up the PCH to San Francisco to get home last night at midnight.
