Default 08 GT Test Drive

On my way home from work yesterday I stopped by a dealership that had a GT model out in the yard. I was surprised how easy it was to test drive! I look younger than I am so I attribute that to the salesman being very set on coming along for the drive. Was not too impressed with the pick up. It felt 2x heavier than my 01 Z however the ride/build quality was second to none! The interior just envelops you! About every 30 secs the salesman would "point out" cop hiding places. I should've taken him for the ride of his life.

Of course it feels 2x heavier than your Z. It IS. But for what it is, it's well priced, and well powered, if not under-rated. I test drove a 550i back to back with a G8, and I liked the G8 considerably more.
