Your ride is so sweet! Love the styling of it and the hood scoop!
Enjoy it and give us some updates here on how it compares.
Oh definitely!

I heard the RC is very baby seat friendly compared to other coupes but we'll see. I don't take the kiddo out everyday anyway, more like once or twice a month and once she switches to a booster seat, it'll be even better but I'll miss the spacious GS trunk space for sure.

Congrats on the F! I'm sure that naturally aspirated V8 exhaust note is absolutely wonderful

Do you miss the GS at all?

I wonder how the transmission compares to GS's?
I presume it should be more aggressive

Oh don't worry, I will also change the spark plugs and brake fluids and coolant and brake pads and batteries before I take it home too.

Don't forget to change that stale air in those tires, including the spare tire.

@ItzFilyO -The hell with gas. Put diesel in it so you can be cool and blow some black soot on black cars.
