Good to see more 8 owners around. I ran across one in Sterling Heights awhile back; but I really don't see many between home and work (Warren).

Congrats. Looks really nice. I'm jealous of the blue.

Thanks! Loving it, though today was only my third day driving it. It's been garaged and will stay that way for a while yet. Never owned a manual trans before, so I'm looking forward to the day when shifting becomes more automatic. Loads of fun though -- the high revs are intoxicating. I can't wait for warmer weather.

Looking forward to a meet-up when the Michiganders come out of hibernation!

I was behind a series one in silver the other day on 94. I passed him and missed a shift, total embarrassment..... We gave each other the nod and split. Nice 8 though
