Little fun after dinner
So I took the wife out to dinner today at a Chinese restaurant. Coming home on the four way I passed by a Mustang Cobra GT. I stepped into it a little with V and walked away. As luck would have it we both were at the stop light. The teenagers were gawking at the car. They were laughing saying at first they looked over and thought "Oh a Cadillac." Once I walked away they saw the "V" badge and about shit. He asked if I wanted to let it go off the line. My wife was laughing and said let's do it. First time I have every had the green light from her while in the car with me. The light turned green and they were quickly 6-8 car lengths in the rear view. I slowed down and they came up alongside, two of them had their cell phones out snapping pictures. I laid into it again for the sound and settled back into a nice easy trip heading home. My wife was shocked at how well the "V" felt at speed and just how quickly it got there. When I told her how fast we hit, she couldn't believe it. Amazing how quick the car gets to 60 the speed limit.

Nice. Thankfully, 'kill' stories don't get boneyarded here.

I would love to have an ATS V in AWD, but it only comes in RWD.

Mustang Cobra's don't come with GT badges. Sure it wasn't a "poser"?

I have to admit when I bought the 16 Z06/07 I was never 100 % happy with the car and it was beautiful but very uncomfortable for me. When I traded it for the 16 CTSV instantly I was excited about the car maybe Ive become bored with the vetts. I have to admit these CTSV are a blast to drive. |
