Sold my '11 with the TVS about a year ago, I kind of missed it, was really a fun car and there is always something cool about a 10 second daily driver.
After seeing a couple 13s around town lately I decided to pick up another on to play with. Brought home a Black premium GT auto yesterday, bought it from Terry (Beefcake) and it was a smooth deal at a fair price. My 2011 was a base car and was pretty plain, I liked in a bare-bones-sleeper-way but it was a bit on the bland side on the inside.
I know some like and some hate a '13 styling but I like it overall, plus the little screen between the gauges and the backup camera in the mirror is pretty neat. This one feels a little faster stock than my '11 did, I think its mostly the trans calibration, the '11 stock had luxury car like shift points and took forever to downshift. This '13 seems to drop a gear or two a lot quicker, and the sport setting is even better. The select shift is nice as well, wouldnt use it to drag race with because of the lag but driving around the mountain roads here it works OK - much better than the no-gate D-3-2-1 shifter the '11 had.
After I put a few miles on it I'll probably do another Roush/TVS, most likely the same setup I had from VMP but I may also try the 625hp setup directly from Roush to see how that stacks up - can always change the tune down the road.
Couple pics, went with PITA black this time around, think it works well with the new styling.
