I have no personal experience with the Tremec box, but I have experienced similar issues in some vehicles I've driven in the past; generally, I have found that shifting into 2nd, then into 1st helps alleviate the "binding" that can prevent the shift fork from fully engaging.
Alternatively, as...
Dude... you need to chill out and stop fanboying so hard. You're acting like the suggestion that a car other than the GT350 can be good is a cardinal sin, or something.
I read somewhere (SVTperformance, maybe?) that the public COTUS system no longer works with Mustangs. I have never been able to look up mine, either; I just PM Deysha once a week for a status update.
Funnily enough, the M2 actually sounds far better than the M4, despite being a "less special" engine. Nobody is quite sure how BMW managed to make the S55 sound so... boring.
I paid MSRP, but it's at a small dealer that's 10-11 hours away from me, so I'll have to either pay ~$1k to have it shipped to me, or buy a plane ticket and drive it back. I wish I could have found a local dealer without ADM...
I'm not sure if they make them in GT350 sizes, but I've been satisfied with the cold weather and light snow performance of the Continental ExtremeContact DWS tires that I run on my old BMW beater. Being an all-season instead of a dedicated winter tire, I don't have to worry about burning them up...
I just wish I could have ordered mine in Guard...
Other than that, a deep, metallic purple would be nice. BMW's Techno Violet and Daytona Violet are personal favorites of mine.
In all honesty, it's probably almost entirely due to the tires. The tires that come on the Camaro are not in the same class as Cup2s, as it is meant to be a road car before a track car; this is why the regular GT350 and GT PP come with tires that are significantly less sticky than the Cup2s. I...
So, what did your quotes end up looking like? My distance is similar to yours (around 650 miles), and Intercity and Passport quoted around $1080; I'm currently waiting to hear back from Reliable and Horseless Carriage, but I imagine they'll be about the same...
So the cars do not come with any sort of protective film applied to key exterior areas to protect the paint during transport? That strikes me as odd.
That is what I was hoping to leave on the car for my drive home; I would definitely remove the plastic from the seats before starting the ~11...
Do any of you have pictures of your cars still covered in the protective plastic? I'd like to see what all it covers.
I'm going to have an ~11 hour drive home from the dealer I ordered at, so I'm thinking about asking them to leave it on...
Forgeline makes a wheel with a similar design that should allow you to order compatible fitments. They're rather expensive, though...

Haha, our cars will be twins when I get mine; I ordered a stripe-less Lightning Blue as well. It seems like most cars have been ordered with stripes, so it's nice to stand out from the crowd a bit.
What kind of condition was the paint in from the factory? I'll have quite the drive back from the...
I'm actually beginning to wonder if this is normal for the GT350? I feel like most pictures that I've been seeing lately (that are close enough to the car) seem to show this exact condition. It should be absolutely unacceptable for a $60k car to have such piss-poor panel fitment...
