I'm 57. I use this as my DD. Got the car the 2nd day out May 27th 2012. Paid 5
grand over MSRP. Back then in Florida the car was either above sticker or you
didn't have the ability to buy it. It's still like that on the East coast here in
Florida. Have 3 other cars and 2 of them are loud as hell with MT (Roush Mustang,
Nissan Maxima, Cadillac Fleetwood). I'm keeping the exhaust quiet for now. It
seems that the hp gain is not that much with aftermarket parts without a tune.
Having stock exhaust also allows for constant "bring it to the redline" type of
driving". The car is great on gas and feels like you are going fast without
getting a ticket for flooring the car.
In the far future.... I am interested in a LS3 engine swap with a 520hp crate
motor from Chevy with a Tremec 6 speed XL trans. A company is developing a kit
that will be turnkey. And it will only weigh 30 to forty pounds more. The stock
motor and all the things to make it FI is pretty expensive. Close to 9 grand for
all the goodies to get a reliable car. I would rather go for the LS3 swap when the
time comes. It will cost about 19 grand if I use a new crate motor and trans. It
will cost about 9 grand with a used motor and trans. For now I will drive the car
as is for the next few years and let the designers work out all the details of an
LS swap. So far the engine fits (LSx) way back into the engine bay with the
company that I'm watching (Vorshlag)
