    Oh yes! It's on a VPower-only diet, using 3K as a redline for the first 1000 miles, then go up in 2k rpm per 200-250 miles increments after that. Then I can let rip

    I think so I have had black cars for years, but this colour just showed off the lines of the car so well

    Very nice. The '68 is a fave of mine. We'll have to see what the new one is like when it lands in blighty

    It's an '06 GT. It's been a really solid car, surprisingly quick too.
  5. Hello All, Had the care for about 2 weeks and have to say, I am lovin' it. Over more years than I care to admit / remember I've probably had ever so slightly more than my fair share of quick / powerful / daft / plain stoopid cars (delete as applicable) but I have no regrets or second thoughts on this one. I've been a car nut all my life but I have to admit that over the last 4 or 5 years I've got fairly jaded about new cars. The whole thing had got a bit "meh", if that makes sense? So, when it came to needing a new car I wasn't thrilled by the prospect like I used to be. Then one evening a few months ago, my missus came home from work and said, "I saw this car on the M1 today, it looked really good. I'm sure it was a Toyota but not a Celica". Now, my missus is a bit of a petrolhead but complements are very rare and are usually reserved for mustangs like hers. I'm thinking. this must be one of those GT86s I keep hearing about. So, I look online, read reviews, watch the youtube stuff and book a test drive. Then I found the forums. Hello! This is a new car that people are actually genuinely enthusiastic about. This is what I've been missing! Anyway the order was placed, and here I am telling you about it. Circle complete. Thanks for reading. N.
