Purchased a sibling yesterday….

[Todd Turbo S]

I’m not sure if this is the big brother to the Raptor or the Raptor would be considered as the big brother to the Shelby… Wasn’t on my radar but saw this sitting on the show room yesterday when I brought my raptor in for sunroof squeaking.

Ended up being an expensive trip to the Dealership! This is my first American muscle car and obviously I’ve only driven it for a short while and I have not yet opened it up as I want to break it in, but this thing is amazing.

Can’t wait to get it detailed and the PPF and Ceramic Coating completed so I can start driving and breaking in the engine properly, whatever that might be.

Wow that’s one of my dream cars!! The exhaust note is obnoxiously amazing. Enjoy!!

2 things:

1) congrats, what an amazing and beautiful car.

2) is that carpet on your garage floor? If so, I'm more jealous about that, than the Shelby!

3) I know I said 2, but , where is the Raptor going to sit comfortably now?

did you have to pay a dealer mark up?

did you have to pay a dealer mark up?

Yes I did. I spoke to many dealers across the Country, they all have fairly significant mark ups

VERY nice! I would appreciate an update once you drive it a while. I was thinking about getting either a GT 500 or an M3 Competition. I drove the M3 last week, super nice car with a lot of balls. Lots of room for a tall guy like me. Rides really smooth, but handles great. The GT500's have not been around here yet, that I could find.

I’ve always liked the BMWs M series. Had a new M5 v10 and was a great multipurpose DD. The competition series is an entirely different league. That is a serious sports car. I’ll give you feedback after I hit a break in period.

And it’s in Performance Blue! Congrats man, that’s a very fine car.

Keep us posted I’m looking at doing the same thing you have done. Is it the track package or just the standard with the carbon fiber Package? I don’t want the rear seat delete. Just wondering?

 

[NASSTY]

Congrats...That is a badass ride. My local dealer had one the same color but it didn't have the carbon fiber wheels. It had a $25K ADM and it was gone in 2 weeks.
