Overall I like it but I hope they aren't planning on charging much more than a GT.

This is what I see different:

- Wheels/Tires are the same size as the optional 19" on the GT. They look nice though.
- Engine is not dressed any differently than a GT
- Interior is exactly the same except for the GXP on the seats.
- Brembo brakes look nice and should perform better than the very solid stock brakes.
- Front bumper and rear bumper diffuser is different and I think looks better than a stock GT.
- And of course a manual trans with the LS3. I didn't want a stick with this car but a lot of other do. The LS3 is also a better motor obviously but I'm curious to see the gas mileage.

I think it would be fair to charge around $35,995 and adding in the gas guzzler tax.
