    Wow, what a beauty!! I'm sure that DH will have fun driving that, and riding shotgun wouldn't be too shabby either! lol

    Niiiiiiice!! So you're gonna let DH drive it once in a while, right?

    end of the world is evidently approaching.”

    courage to change the things I can,
    and the wisdom to know the difference

    It is sweet! Unfortunately I won't be driving it...I can't drive manual transmission YET!!! The furthest it's been driven is up the driveway, it's not registered yet. Have to wait for the insurance card in the mail. I can't wait to go for a ride in it!

    Way to go! Manual really isn't that hard to learn, just practice in a parking lot for a little while and avoid stops on uphill slants until you get comfortable starting up smoothly (else you are likely to go backwards until you get the acceleration right).

    Nice toy. My hubby has his TransAm undercover. We take it out about once every 6 weeks. I think I have driven it twice. Just wait until you learn to drive a stick. They are soooo much fun. You'll be the envy of all the high school boys in no time. Word of advice, keep this away from shopping center parking lots, especially
    WM. It doesn't matter if we park in no man's land, someone always parks right next to us, unless I stay with the car and stand outside to give dirty looks to anyone who even looks like they are thinking about pulling next to us. Now what are you getting for Christmas?
