So guys finally!!!!!!!!........

Test drove the GTS Manual Demo at a dealership today..... Everyone has already said what i will anyway...

Car was great...

Coming from a 6Ltr Big Cammed Manual Ute i can say this car has a surprising amount of torque down low....

Yes its very average through the mid range but thats only if u change up gears to quick IMO. Gear change correctly and u wont notice it at all..

The poor saleswoman Pauline probably wished she wore a neck brace because i was not going to go light just cause she was sitting next to me. She is a Minx, wonder if she is
single?..

I seen her check out the speedo a few times but never said anything..Good woman...

So only negatives r average mid range, clutch to light for me, And didnt get Pauline to catch up with me when she knocked off work....

Little brother was in the back and he didnt mind it at all but it was cramped a bit.. He is 179cm for the record.... Between the 3 of us there was 220kg in the car roughly... The car

is brilliant, Silver looks great..... Guys this is everything we wanted..... Its pure sex..... Does need to be dumped though... I didnt feel i was that low when sitting in it but a lot of

people say that...... Totally surprised it had sat nav standard... I didnt know that even though its probably been told a million times, i just never took note... Anyway u'll love it...

Money well spent.... Gear shifts were so short!! If anyones driven a MX-5 or Commodore with a walkinshaw short shift this is shorter.... Boot space is average but i wont be driving

around with my spare or that cover so will allow more room.... Enjoy the pic.....
