Even Better news for the industry. I think this might even give a spark to our recession ridden economy.

Well I got my first ride in it tonight. Very very nice car. Some how the car was supposed to be black on black but has black seats with tan inserts. But We don't care.

That car is begging to be power shifted so bad. The clutch pedal is a soft pedal, comparable to the LS7 clutch set up, and second gear is so smooth.

Daytona beach shots tomorrow. Can't wait.
