I am pretty Jacked. Anyone know of a reputable company that can transport my car from the Peg??

A very good friend of mine owns and leasing company and has cars moved across the country often, always in closed trailers. I can ask him for the company name and a contact name, if you need me to.

My friend uses TFX International. They move high end vehicles.

Looking forward to some magna ride dampers, sticky MPSS tires, the 8250 redline and that sick exhaust

Yeah I can't believe they put such garbage rubber on them. A set of drag radials would have made a world of difference.

Exciting times, I've never driven a GT500, but you will be impressed with how "planted" the GT350 feels, this thing just grabs the road and keeps putting down the power. That surge in torque around 3500 to 4000 rpm pushes you back in your seat, and it just keeps pulling, all the way to 8250, quite the sensation. You've heard it a million times, but you really do have to resist the temptation to shift around 6000, and let it go to 8250.

Very solid and stable on the road, comfortable and civilized on long highway trips, and the magneride is worth it, amazing to feel the difference in ride/steering feedback throughout the different mode selections.

I'm curious to hear your impressions once you take delivery, I figure its still 4 to 6 weeks to go before I'm out of storage, maybe 8.

The numbers I found show 395 DIB Tech Packs produced for the US and Canada total, and only 425 Tech Packs made it to Canada for the 2016 model year, (thats all colours, not sure what the breakdown is from there)

I am so excited to take the wheel and drive this beast. Its funny ever since I started this search I have not been able to test drive one due to weather. There are not many in theses parts to choose from either.

Very happen with my choice, love the DIB and the fact that it's a "new" 16 is even better. I would take my GT500 for rides along the escarpment and can't wait to do the same with the 350. :chacha:

Incidentally, if you think the car sounds good in Sport mode, drop the back seats and then punch it. If you thought it sounded good before, that's nothing, wait until you don't have the seat cushions knocking the sound down.

I'm seriously considering installing the R rear seat delete panel, I'll never use the back seats anyway. lol I'll never drive with the back seats up again.

Congrats on the car, you will love it. Different than the GT500.
But a good different, works very well sounds amazing.
Handling is incredible, Enjoy:)
