    This will be the first time I have strayed from GM since a teenager.

    The GT350R is still one of my favorite.
    A flat plane crank and spins passed 8,000 rpm.

    They just sound soooooo good.

    That blue darkhorse on the showroom floor is looking like a strong contender.

    I test drove two dark horse cars. We didn't like the Recaro seats in those unless you are 145 lbs. The optional cloth seats kinda sucked. I would have needed to drop the DH and go to a Premium trim package to go back to a comfortable leather seat. The dash and infotainment systems was a lot to take in. Lord help ya if it failed. The power and 10 speed was amazing and the tremec 6 speed was pretty good as well. We absolutely love that blue color. It is stunning.

    The Shelby GT500 was a madman. I may have scared the wife and salesman in the back seat jizzed on himself. I did a launch and it really didn't grab traction until the 2-3 shift and I backed out of the throttle a bit. When it did hook though...my wife said it felt like she was getting sucked into the seat. I used all 760hp...that I can guarantee. This car is for racing/competitions. I would not want to drive this car casually a few times per week. Not sure it is capable of casual (it is) or if I'm just not to be trusted. This one was over priced and I was only willing to go to 74k. The Recaro seats in the Shelby are how seats are supposed to be.

    The silver 2019 Mustang GT Roush stage 3 is such a great car. 710hp/10 speed auto, serious performance. Car has 7800 miles and the tires are original date stamped from late 2017. The tires were in good condition..so the car had little to no hard use. Recaro seats are perfect.

    The 2021 Mustang Roush Stage 3 is next level (red). 750hp/670tq,
    10 speed, 4700 miles, great interior options. Recaro seats are perfect.

    I decided on the 2021 Roush Mustang.

    See above. Just amazing. If I'm back out in TN near Knoxville you will have to take this for a spin. It's just pure evil.

    Good choice. I would have picked a Roush over the 500.

    I love this guy's channel..which is saying something since I don't follow stuff on Youtube really. An honest look at the newbie's view. He has a series of the Cybertruck and is very fair about it.

    I must be getting old. I have no desire to ride around after 10pm anymore.
    Back in high school and into my early 20’s, my friends and I would ride all night.
    Sometimes we’d end up in a whole different state.
