Car is fast, comfortable, brakes very well and easy to drive. Kind of benign IMO as high performance cars go. Lacks character like the Cobra. Draws as much attention as the Cobra does. That's my observations w/o actually owning it.

Easy to fix, Penske shocks, 750 pound rear springs and 400 pound front springs then drop ride height by 1.75" character comes right back. 26.5 PSI also helps with 105 octane unleaded. With those changes it wants to kill you almost as much as a Cobra does.
