New guys here|Question for all the 4.8is owners...

*Make that "new guy"...there's just one of me.

Hey guys,

I've got a very simple question for you. Is your 4.8 fun to drive?

The reason I ask is because after 4 years of having a sports car, I'm ready for a small break. I had a 99 E36 M3 for 3 years, and then sold it when I got my GTO. Both of those cars have been extremely gratifying to drive.

I test drove a local car recently and absolutely loved it. The sound of the exhaust is really what got to me...it was perfection. But my drive was limited. You never really get to know until a car until you've owned it.

So to reiterate, is your 4.8 enjoyable to drive, particularly on tighter backroads (something that Knoxville has a lot of)? Obviously I'm not talking about the same kind of enjoyment you're going to get from an M roadster, but can you still enjoy a spirited weekend drive? I got the impression that you can, but you tell me.

Cheers,
Matt

And here are two quick pictures of my past and current vehicle...I guess you can consider this my introduction thread.
