Some of you may remember my thread a few weeks back about my 07 gt500 getting wrecked. Well it was considered totaled and this is the replacement. 08 , 14,xxx miles, nav, razor wheels, jlt cai, borla exhaust, tune, springs, sway bar, UCA, and panhard bar. Car is real clean and Im happy with the purchase.

Nice car but I would lose the wheels

You think? I agree when i first saw the pics online i wasnt a fan of the wheels , but once i saw it in person they started growing on me. I do have a full set of stockers in the garage if i choose to swap them

Beautiful car man congrats, but I agree lose the wheels. It makes the car look, I don't want to say cheap, but they are definitely not flattering.


The 2010 and up gt500 wheels would look great on the car, as would some forgestars.

Powder coat those wheels gloss black for pure sexiness. Maybe do the outside lip facing out with an accent stripe the same color as your stripes on the car. Gloss black with that blue accent would look nice.

Another yuck vote for the wheels....

Does it ride/drive any different power wise/supsension wise or about the same?

Hopefully you did not run into any cops on 58 to and from Va Bch!

The car was picked up in Fayetteville NC, the guy is stationed at fort bragg. Suspension wise its definitely rougher riding than the other one, just over bumps. Havent really taken in any corners yet. Motor feels real strong, the dyno sheet says 517 rwhp with just a intake and tune. Seat of the pants feels pretty much like the black one. Im liking the metallic in the blue stripe, hadnt noticed that till earlier. So far im extremely happy. It seems to be 50/50 on the wheels. Hope i can get her to the track soon

There are better wheels, but even if you didn't change a thing, that car is bad ass.

Apparently the car has the eibach suspension kit on it. Front and rear sway bars, dampers front/rear, and springs. I but she will handle pretty good, compared to stock anyways
