One of the many benefits of buying a 500, the Predator (at least mine) just simply makes none of those dogshit noises the coyotes do. I had two coyote gts, and both had the awful tick and the 2-3k rattle. This car has no ticks, no rattles, no noises, and hasn't used 1 drop of oil in its life.
I've got nothing but love for the Coyote in my GTs and Mach 1 HP. Being able to own these cars at the price point they are available is fantastic. Noises and all.

Loved my coyotes as well, they were great cars...Just wasn't enamored with all the sounds they made.

The sounds are just part of the charm LOL

Man you ain’t kidding. If the pavement is dry I still may go tomorrow. I’m just not a fan of driving on PS4S when it’s 30F outside. It’ll be like driving on ice skates. If I don’t go tomorrow, I took a few days off at the end of next week when the weather is nicer and will go then. But I don’t always exercise patience when I get excited about stuff LOL.

this pretty much sums up Chicagoland weather, CMC posted it today and it’s very appropriate

I do love me some Grabber Yellow! Thanks for adding to my analysis paralysis problems 🤣. The weather here is not cooperating with my test drive plans. Got mostly rain here but a little snow and highs in the mid 30’s today and tomorrow. A flight to LA isn’t looking too bad right about now…
Ouch! Yes I moved here specifically for the weather - 84 today - escaping the rain and snow of Oregon. Most of my neighbors are from Oregon, Washington and of course Canada. With all of the high end rides running around down here I’ve only spotted 1 GT500 In 2 years. In contrast there are so many C8’s you’d think it’s the official car of the valley.

Hope you find a good one

It was 70F two weeks ago (way above average) and now this. And go 2 hours northwest and they have 5”+ on the ground 🤦‍♂️. This is why I wasn’t going to start shopping in earnest until mid April. But I get impatient with such things

Just caught up on this thread…. One additional thing to look for on a 2020 car is under hood cracks in the ribs of the panels. Not a big deal, but are they present and need to be repaired, if previously repaired was it a quality job, and maybe it’s all factory good Or you can’t tell. The issue existed on some cars, consensus at the time was bump stops not being properly adjusted in the factory.

Good luck on predator shopping, hopefully the weather cooperates real soon.

It’ll still be a bit before I can hear mine whine….-20f here still so please don’t tell me more about your short driving season lol

Oh yeah, I forgot about the cracked under hoods!

Well, I am a short person WITH a "shortened" driving season, so I win. Or do I?

LOL yeah I guess I shouldn’t complain too much. You win (or lose I suppose 🤣). Thanks for the tip on the hood crack. Hope the weather starts to break for you soon!
