Such an amazing car! The V-8 rumbles like no other engine I’ve driven. Greg made the process easy and accommodated. Would drive again in a heartbeat and highly recommend if you’re on the fence. By the way, it’s a special edition 1 of 500 edition 50 which made the whole experience even more elevated. Thanks!’
