I paid 26 for my 06 gt stick(not much more than our last minivan) and cannot say enough good things about this car...25 mpg,
13.78@103 best to date at the strip, best brakes Ive ever had, fits like a glove...
Only things that would be nicer would be another 100 ft-lb off idle, and a real throttle- the drive-by-wire thing works great for traction control, but feels a little 'disconnected' at times- like the way the rpm hangs at 2k when you lift(only at certain temps will it drop immediately, and it burbles/cackles/backfires- love that sound!)
