Here is the video my buddy David took this past Sunday of my recently acquired 5 litre. it was great time shooting and chilling the guys . Make sure to like and follow his YouTube page for more great car videos and share this video as well ! :D

Thoughts : It's 420 hp | 390 ft.lb V8  screams and pulls very well up to it's 7,000 rpm redline and it get's surprisingly decent gas mileage if you stay out of it , i average around 17 to 18 mpg on my daily route to work and back home . The ride quality has been compromised a bit over a normal GT since it has stiffer springs and shocks ( Brembo package ) , but it's 100% daily driver friendly .

A few pics from my phone earlier today at the filming location for my 5.0. the video shot by David and the rest of the better pics taken by Connor should be edited later next week.

911 & Vanquish

Drove the 911 Turbo today. enjoyed the hell out of the beautiful Austin , Texas weather.

also on my way back home , about to turn into my neighborhood i see a 2013 Aston Martin Vanquish pass me with paper plates ... O.O that car is nuts in person , sounds angry as well.

Today was a good day .

_________________________________________________________

Just bought a 5.0 , thought long and hard about this daily thing , i considered a range of cars like BRZ/FRS , 370Z , ap2 s2000 , Nismo 350z , 1st gen CTS V , C5 Z06 , B8 Audi A4 quattro , Challenger SRT 8 , EVO X , 2007 - 2010 STI's and the 2013 5.0 .

so i decided that the 2012 5.0 was the way to go. it took awhile to find the exact one i wanted with low mileage , but it was worth the hunt . i could not find a 2013 5.0 that i was happy with

- *Premium package ( 6 way power leather seats , shaker 500 sound system , leather wrapped steering wheel and a few other things i'm forgetting)

- low miles , currently sitting at 7,600 miles

-Black over charcoal leather

- ceramic tint

- Boss 302 short shifter

- Boss 302 3.73 ratio LSD

- axleback exhaust

- Brembo package w/ 19" wheels

i'll have better photo's once i pick up the car next week.
