In the days before stores were open 24-7, I would take my children to snow-filled parking lots and teach them how to control skidding cars. I had one rule! Don't hit the light poles. Glenn

Exactly! Use the inventory to your advantage. Specking out your own wheel doesn't make it a better wheel! The braking, handling, and power are exceptional. And don't mistake the 10R80 ten-speed and paddles with your grandma’s automatic. It is a surgical instrument compared to previous tranny's...

I'm just saying I think he would be better off buying the real deal rather than using a base model to upgrade performance he's not inclined to use. I am certain the vast majority of Dark Horses never get tracked, but the itch can be scratched. I ended the post saying that he would probably enjoy...

That happens very often. I got the Premium GT convertible. It doesn't have Magneride or PP, and I don't miss them. The car handles and rides amazingly! I do think, based on not wanting to track or drag race, that the Dark Horse will scratch all your itches because it basically comes with...

I would definitely avoid soap on the top. Mine looks like new and all I use is either a feather duster, or lint rollers on it. Good luck on your garage search! Glenn

As I said earlier, I drive all winter and get it washed regularly. Two things! I have a garage, so my car dries fairly quickly, even in the winter, and secondly, the carwash is by hand, and I never let them put soap on the top, summer or winter. I never wash my car myself and I'm damn sure not...

Yes! Situational awareness!! Just assume every idiot within a five-mile radius is going to screw up. Driving to work one night, in a snowstorm on the FDR (downtown Manhattan for those not familiar), I see a jackass do a tiny fishtail and immediately backed off and slowed down because I knew what...

I do, in PA, and being Canadian, I totally understand and have much experience in Ontario. Albeit, mostly in the Toronto suburbs. I usually drive up R81 and west on the 401. Well, I guess that depends upon whether I'm going or coming! I won't usually drive on wet roads, summer or winter, but...

Based on what you are saying, I assume your P-Zero tires are the summer variety. I drive my car all winter in PA, on dry roads, and I've never had a traction problem. Although, I do make sure the tires are warmed up before stretching her legs. My Conti's are all-season. Glenn

Hell yeah! I made a drive yesterday but only a little over an hour. I drive mine all year but never in the wet. Unless the man upstairs has plans he didn't tell me about. Anyway, enjoy! Glenn

I had to check my garage to make sure mine was still there! It looks beautiful! But then again, I'm prejudiced by mine! Use it well, and respect its power! Glenn

Sorry, I’m new wheel all day long. There will always be another pothole you don't see or can't avoid. It's not like it's cosmetic, and what will happen when you hit the next government-patched job that failed? YMMV! Glenn

Agreed! I don't mind the occasional intrusion. There are enough problems with distracted drivers. Yesterday, going to a doctor, stuck in a traffic jam, some idiot in a beemer rear ended my wife's brand new Murano Platinum. Thank God there was no damage! About two miles later, 5 mile backup, the...

I don't necessarily go to show my car, especially to be judged. Often times it is just the club members lining up their cars and popping the hood, so others can see what the engine compartment looks like! Crowded! Glenn

Sitting among bugs all day would annoy the heck out of me. A few weeks ago, I attended the Snakes on the Mountain show in Bethlehem, PA. Most of the cars were parked on grass, except for some super expensive exotics. The difference was that there were no bugs, and the grassy areas were like the...

I've probably done a dozen shows and cars and coffee meets. First, I don't go if there is a chance of rain. Secondly, most people are respectful of our rides. However, I do not spend much time away from my car. Because you don't always know where you may be parked, I always have a chair with an...

Yes! I'm a little prejudiced but definitely one for the 2024 GT Convertible. Glenn

I love my Conti's, OEM. They have great traction and I don't worry about breaking free when driving hard on twisty back roads. They are very quiet and not a harsh ride. Glenn

I feel ya' brother! Glenn

Good idea! But I'd rather pay the $800! Glenn
