    I could beat the gt walking if I wanted to lol. I was just surprised. This thing has one of hell of an acceleration rate.... almost impresses me. I was going 80 earlier and the dude wouldn't let me pass him so I punched the gas and blew past him going 105........ I got this thing up to speed faster than my old gt would have... for a ford it almost impressed me

    Yea just found out that it had 200hp.... not bad for a granny car. Apparently darrell (fiancee's grandpa) has good taste for the most part except when it comes down to brands lol. I figured it'd be the lower model then I looked in the book and found out it was mid.... not complaining as much now that I know I can at least get from point a to point b and have fun doing it.

    Its really easy to speed though cuz its a smooth ride.... can't even feel the "stop ahead" ruts barely.... not something i'm used to. Being as its all I got I think i'll survive until my car is done and pretty and drivable again

    It's so weird looking out in the driveway and not seeing my car. Finally get her back on Sunday.
    Hopefully she behaves on the way back for the temporary driver.

    Pondered over a Mod, just stood there starring at it for 30 minutes in the middle of the parking lot, with the hood lifted.

    Unplug Maffy and let the driver know the light is just the car's way of saying hi.
