Harry, The HONEST truth is my wife bought an 08 V6/auto convertible last fall
It is one the most fun cars we have ever owned. As far as the V8 thing...
I almost got caught the week of New Year at ###### near 100 (Miles not Klicks)
on I-85 with the top down. Very Tight and well handling Car!!!! Maybe it's because
of the Pony package.
We bought ours at the local dealer, used, with less than 6000 miles
on the clock for 20K out the door ( taxes, title etc). The way to go, with a bunch of them
coming in from lease. Ours was a Ford factory rep's car.
Camaroman sez go for it!
PM me if you want to talk directly over the phone.
