She's gorgeous. Well done! Best color :-)

With 0% finance, it's a fantastic deal.

All of you are right. They are muscle cars (google it and you’ll find zillion references to back it up). Sports cars (ask your insurance agent). Pony car (it’s the OG, plus, there’s ponies all over this freaking thing).

Done!

I bought mine in May and got $9k off MSRP. Here in the southeast, new car discounts are massive. I would target $9-10k off MSRP. For a 2020, you likely won't see prices that low for another 8-10 months. I don't know this for fact, I'm just speculating. I use cargurus.com and cars.com for looking...

Glad you got rid of the car from Carvana. I would never buy from them. It smells like high-volume auction/non-reported salvage cars. Buy new and you aren't buying someone's problems. Any new car I've ever purchased has been 100% reliable. My '19 GT is no different, albeit it's young. I would...

GLWS, OP. Cool to see someone from the CSRA. I lived there (Evans). I still own the house and rent it out. Looks like you have quite a nice fleet in your garage. Ever take that GTR to Road?

OP, I think that is a fantastic deal. I just bought a 19 new and got $9k off. Fortunately, in SC, sales tax is capped at $500, though the dealer got theirs with a $700 dealer fee. I would avoid the 2018, as they had issues. The 2019 is more reliable. That's good you are looking at automatic...

Uh, okay... It will be an absolute blast. You will become addicted, that's why you pretty much never see track junkies get into drag racing. It's like going from skiing double black diamonds to bunny trails. A GT350 is far from a dedicated race car. Your current car can become a track car with...

^^^ What he said on the brake points- do it early. In fact, it would be a great idea to not go 100% your first day. I'd recommend a few laps at 60-70%. Get the feel of where you need to brake. You can either figure out the apex, follow others' lines or follow the tire marks. I'd take a...

I meant motorcycle when I said bike!

Do you have Amazon Prime? That's the best way if you know your helmet size (which is important)...

Apparently Snell helmets are permitted. Not sure what was up with my days there for autocross. You'll need the SA-rated one newer than 2005.

The rules could be different for the helmet. That's what it was for my autocross. The TI guy was a stickler. It's great for beginners. The track is recently repaved. There are some elevation changes (not major like the Nuerburgring- ask me how I know). There is run-off, so if you brake late...

OP, You're going to want to get DOT4 brake fluid. The ones mentioned above are fine. They can be tricky to find, so get it ASAP. Look up how many quarts you'll need- likely 750ml. For your last event of the year, I'd recommend replacing the brake fluid again (at a minimum) to the...

Pictures?

LOL. Here's some empirical data for you: Lightning Lap Results: GT PP2: 2:53.8 RS5 V8: 3:03.9 We don't have results for the A10 PP1, but I am guessing it would be around a 2:56-2:57. The RS5 is over 4000 pounds. I am nearly certain the A10 shifts faster. I had an M5 with DCT. Obviously, DCT is...

OP, My 2019 GT is flawless thus far, though I have less than 2000 miles. I think Ford worked out the tranny issues for MY19. I specifically avoided buying an '18 for this reason. The 2019 GT PP1 Auto will own a V8 RS5 in every performance category.

My cars are registered in SC ;-)
