Went and seen a new 5.0 at the dealer..... didn't test drive it because they were supposed to get us an covert MANUAL but brought us an AUTOMATIC.....so didn't want to drive it i told the sales guy real sports cars come manual (sorry if i offend any one who has an automatic)So he is supposed to get us another one this weekend to test drive a stick shift.... Anyways here are some pics of the car....Oh yeah and even if you don't like imports this car was bad a$$ that was there....

Is that a skyline. They should have brought back the t-tops with the new 5.0 . The auto at the track was hitting 12's all day I wouldn't mind have that as a dd [Big Grin]

So, you prefer iron blocks, more weight, worse suspension, cheap/plastic interiors all on a 30 year old chassis? [Smile]

Ya...I dont think stock for stock an 03 term would beat a new 5.0, in any event...It handles better, brakes better, has better interior, gets waaaay better milage, and just as fast if not faster at the track...
