I thought I would share this video for those who are patiently waiting (my patience wore out lol) for their new GT500.

Very nice video!

I will say on my last couple of spirited drives, I like driving in track mode with manual paddles around town. Revving it with both paddles does not give it the volume I'd expect vs. GT350. I am getting xpipe res delete this weekend; will difference.

Yep! We're neighbors.

Good question and I didn’t even know there was a difference so hopefully someone chimes in.

Speed Phenom posted about this in one his videos. He noticed the incorrect antenna on a car at a dealer he visited. I think it's an error (the fin type). The puck is the correct antenna. I believe the fin style is for the Fusion and maybe some SUVs?

This is the video where Speed Phenom noticed the mistake...

First appearance of the incorrect antenna is at the 5:24 mark.

I don't believe it's "incorrect," it's merely the new style antenna. Earl has mentioned it previously and it seems the newest productions are getting them.

My question is, does it yield better GPS/Internet performance and if so, can you swap?

Shreve Mill Road would put you in Leesburg VA area. Can we buy you lunch in Sterling so we can all oggle and fuss over the car?

Have you taken the car to CarMax Dulles yet to get a trade-in quote? (JK, channeling YT boobage...)

no, not at all. I guess you missed the thread about 'StangMode' antics...
There's at least 5 of us in the immediate area (work/home) so would love to see it in person and go bombing down Seneca and Beach Mill roads.
