2013 gt500

[MattB]

my problem with the one Gallardo i was in ( i think at 2006 E gear car)..was when the owner went "check this out" and went WOT.. and i said " is that it???"

i would be mad the few times i put my foot down and my 100k car was slow as balls..

and to mod those cars = $$$$$$$$... i will have to stick to my vette for now

It isn't the fastest, it's a heavy AWD 500HP car, but, the feeling while driving is nice and responsive. Of course I'd have an 800HP coupe with draglites to satisfy my dragracing needs, but for going-out and drinking like a cockjockey on Fri/Sat night, the Gallardo gets my vote.

maybe its my old age.. but if i had an extra 100k laying around for a G.. i would get a bigger house.. not a 100k+ car

I'm single, I need a smaller house(less to clean), time to be a 30k millionaire and lease a baller whip from Autoflex!!!

I'd love to take a Gallardo out to the country backroads through the twisty turns between McKinney and Sherman. I don't need a twin turbo one since you can't use it through a turn anyways. I just want to hear that uncorked exhaust in the countryside! I heard Taylor's car Friday night at the meet and that car sounds perfect! I wanted to check it out, but I didn't want to bother him.

Agreed!

I remember when he bought that car and it was stock, now he's knockin-out TT packages like it's going outta style!

To have a rational discussion, you need to be coming from a rational basis with your comments. The new Camaro has outsold the Mustang since it came out and anyone waiting for the minor redesign of the Mustang is not going to change those stats. Like it or not, the style of the Camaro pops much more than the Mustang and people put a high priority on style when buying cars like the Mustang or Camaro. Until Ford totally redesigns the Mustang, the Camaro will continue to outsell it. Performance doesn't matter to the majority of car buyers (at least minor variances in performance). The SS is fast enough for 98% of Camaro buyers. The 2% where it isn't will buy the slightly faster 5.0 or the GT500 or ZL1.

I agree w/ much of this, but I believe camaro sells have only been above the mustangs because of the lack of being in the market for so long. So many guys are diehards and didn't have an opportunity to buy one for what nearly 10 years? Of course their sales are going to be higher. The camaro was greatly promoted as well w/ its lack of being on the road for some time. It's a sharp looking car and performs well for it's weight... I personally just think it looks too much like a hot wheels car. Their is no arguing though that the 2011 5.0 is a far better deal than the camaro... same w/ the v6 cars. Performance, cost to mod, and design in my opinion are all better w/ the mustang. I think the interior on the mustang is leaps above the camaro as well...

lol.. you realise if anything.. a 70k GT500 is WAY more of a Boy racer turned mid lift chrisis Douche than a vette.. considering you can get into a base c6 coupe for 43ish K brand new.. ..just sayin...

GT500 is not near 70K MSRP, but maybe that was covered already. 13 GT500 is cheaper than the ZL1.

Can you really get a brand new c6 for 43k? I had no idea that was possible, but a good fucking deal IMO. Is that the base models?

new 1lt base coupes are 43-46k i beleive.. when you by "new previous year" they drop below that too.

Yes, 1LT's go for low 40's.


GT500 base price is $54k.

I think Jay with the silver "Z51" paid right at $40k for his new in '08.

his Z51 1lt was mid 40s ...

my car (3lt z51) was "stickered" at like 54 i think? sold for 49.. and i picked it up 1 year old for 37.

i didnt want to mess with a 1lt, it lacked to many features that i really liked so i picked up a 3lt.

I dont see myself going bigger on the blower any time soon. the fact that lisa let me get another blower already 6 months after the D1 went on was enough lol..

current blower will have to do.
