Looks like a fun Summer car

Yes, I know that. However, it will likely be "entertaining" to drive. Heck, the WRX is somewhat entertaining to drive because of the louder exhaust. My MS6 is pretty quiet so is really stealthy. My wife (then GF) used to know when I showed up at her place because she could hear the rumbling of that stock 1986 Mustang GT from inside her place. That, and the ease of breaking the rear tires free. 😀 Our AWD turbos are fast, but damned if I can get the tires to even make a squeak from a dead stop..

I hear you loud & clear. Had an 06 GTO and now my 06 LGT. Very different driving experiences (and of course the GTO was a shit-ton faster, but that's a different story).

The price might be a bit high, but in some cases mods can add value. I saw a 726whp caged race-ready MR2 for sale for $15.5k a few months ago. Way more than book, way less than replacement cost. 😛

Mods do often add value. If a mod is difficult and costs a decent chunk of money, you pay more for a vehicle that already has it done. For example a Miata with a V8 swap is worth more than a stock.

Well those are a little different than just adding wheels, sound system, and supercharger to a vehicle. Those are more than just mods to a stock car.

I drove one of the last of the GTOs and was thoroughly unimpressed with it. It was powerful but the steering was completely numb and it just didn't feel like the car was an extension of me, like I could explore the limits and just feel comfortable with what it was telling me. It felt more like something you just sit in and make inputs and then the car does things but you don't really get that feedback from it you get in other more driver oriented sports cars.
