Proud new s197 owner! Just picked up the new ride yesterday. It's a brand new 09 with just 245mi on it (I put on 215 of those since yesterday). This thing is a completely different beast than the 94 I had. Way better gas mileage and driveability! I'm definately a fan of the 3v modular now! Now I just need to save up for that turbo kit

The S197 GT is a complete ease to drive at high speeds. 80 MPH feels like nothing at all.
enjoy her and have lots of fun

Yeah, it was a pretty good deal. It ended up being $25,500. Sticker price on the car was $34,000, so I'm pretty happy with the price. I think my favorite part of the car is the glass back. I feel like the cool kid in school
. I'll work on getting some pics up. I have to get a sd card for my camera first.
