My spousal unit originally said "ok", then "no", then "do whatever you want, you always do anyway". Not sure what THAT meant, but it wasn't good.

So I bought the SRT6.

Gave her a ride in it the other day (it's not legally on the road yet) and pointed out how comfortable SHE would be driving an automatic and not having to fuss with the convertible top. I think she may come around by the end of the summer. Otherwise I have a choice of two cars to sleep in.

 

This made me laugh out loud. Good post Goldwing.
PS Hope to meet you in the spring when I hook up with Crossfirefrank.
We will hook up at Woodward but need a meet sooner too. Gary

 

She's ok with it again, but has preference for me to curve into a mustang instead (5th gen camaro's arent out yet booo). Just dont want to spend 25-30k for same performance, but it has the four seats she would want. Digging the smaller size and slightly better fuel economy of the SRT6 - kinda nice retro and pretty rare on the road. I'll be happy with either car.


Our potential compromise is a mustang gt roush stage 2 - she likes the body since it's similar the 60's design....it's a big daddy though, but should still get a tough fight by the srt6 on a long run when stock vs stock, but it would be easier to improve in the aftermarket.

 

stangs are too common. id go for the crossfire for sure.. then again i may be a little bias. :-P

fords are icky anyways, althought i love the old old mustangs

 

Decision is difficult - agree about the stangs, they sell well on the market new and used. Either way it's fun money put into gas
