Talking I Think I'm In Love...

I just went into town to pick up a witch hat (yes, i dress up to give out candy! ) and when I was leaving a 4.8 pulled up in back of me. I think she wanted my parking space...anyways, I must've been taking longer than she wanted so she pulled out and roared right past me.

I have seen the 4.8's on the road, but I never heard one.
OH.MY.GOD...i think I want one now....



To whomever has one...

Don't we all (current owners aside)? With the low fuel economy and price of gas in the UK it will always remain a dream for me.

I drive a 4.8is. Sometimes I guess since Im inside the vehicle I wish it were louder, but whenever Im outside the car and I hear someone else drive it or simply turn the engine on, I put a huge smile on my face. I wonder how it sounds full throttle from a 2nd persons POV. Ofcourse that will never happen as the most I have let anyone drive my car has been with revs under 3000rpms, and it still sounds badass.

BB, I often think about trading mine in for a 4.8 too, especially now that the prices have come down on those. Go for it

I love my 4.8, and I never get tired of hearing the engine fire up and the rumble of the V8!
