[QUOTE="Blown 89, post: 15428769, member: 45161"] Having made that jump here's what you can expect: - The V will get WAY more attention. Seriously, it's to the point of ridiculousness. - The V will feel numb. Throttle response, chassis feel, ride, audible sensations....everything. If you go manual the shifter is numb and squishy, it's not like the ATS-V's spectacular gear changes. Unfortunately there aren't any decent shifter options. I both hate and love this about the car. - It doesn't matter if you have an exhaust or not, the it's much quieter inside. It's a buzz kill if you have an exhaust - No interior rattles, squeaks, etc. - Gas mileage in the V SUCKS. My geared and modded 01 looked like a Prius in comparison - The V will feel heavier, it's noticeable - The V won't feel fast even though it will merc the 03 in your sig - Sound quality wise the stereo is pretty good but don't expect anything aftermarket. - The V is very mod friendly - The V community.....upscale ricers - The V is mod friendly. Very, very, very mod friendly - Aftermarket parts are more expensive - Getting good tires is a nightmare - The electronic luxuries are severely dated - Budget for traffic tickets. 120 feels like 65. - The interior is nicer than you've read and so is everything else for that matter. Reviewers were unnecessarily rough on everything that wasn't the drivetrain in this car compared to competitors of the same generation I miss the sensory input of my Cobra but I enjoy being able to talk on the phone on commutes. It's a tossup. If I didn't race a shifter kart on the weekends I would miss my Cobra a lot more. If you have specific questions shoot me a PM. Edit: go over a used car thoroughly. From what I've seen V owners beat the shit out of their cars and some have janky work done. [/QUOTE]
