I went to Galpin on Sunday, it's a 1.5 hour drive for me, but I'm pretty hot to get a new or newer car. Drove an 06, they had more than a dozen gts on the lot. Got really great service from a salesman named skip. Not pushy, very nice. Not really knowledgable about mods and the like. I was asking if they could install ford racing 4:10s, Cat Back and racing springs and keep my warrentee intact.
Ultimately they got some kid who was in management, also really nice kid. He has a modded Trans Am and CTS-V (sacrilidge I know) but he was into the modding thing.
Told me that the springs and exhaust was not a problem. However he didn't think they could do the rear end under warrentee.
I'm still stuck with a decision. I liked the car and it's a quick little devil. But I have to choose between an 06 which I will lightly mod and my buddies 95 Saleen S351R (26000 miles, clean tight and fricking fast as heck). I know they are very different cars, but that is where I am.
In the last month he's put in an new tko 600, cuz he didn't like the way it was shifting and currently he has the engine torn down to replace the pistons with forged units and have everything balanced and blue printed to the nth degree.
After that we're going to make an appointment to drop it off at grc to get a lightning mass air meter and larger fuel injectors, not so much for HP as insurance against a lean running condition. That and obviously a tune for dependability over ragged edge HP.
It'such a rush, but do I want to trade that for the dependability of a Brand new car? I'm fricking changing my mind more than my wife shopping for purses.
