      Re: Need input fellow petrol heads

      Thank for all the input guys, I really appreciate it. I went down and and test drove the Aston and man it was a blast to drive, it was everything I thought it would be and more. The car handles like it is on rails and boy can it get to it. I was able to do 0-60 in less than 5 sec and it was screaming down the highway.

      That said and done I have decided to keep the Challenger. I really like it and have always enjoyed muscle cars anyway. The Aston had some electrical issues and needed interior work and I just did not feel like spending that kind of money on a project car.

      So I am not giving up the dream and will still be on the look out for one. But I am going to wait until I find exactly what I want, I would rather have a DB9 anyway

      Anyway I decided to treat my Challenger to a new short cold air induction system, and upgrade on the turbo charger and new stainless pedals and a new Mopar T-shifter and stainless running boards.

      Thanks again guys I really appreciate the input.

        Smart choice IMO! Wait until you get a perfect (or close) Aston. Not worth giving up such a damn fine Challenger for something needing work.

          Smart move my friend, plus I dont think any one posted it but what would insurance be on a car like that. I'm sure that is probably a bit pricy as well. But in the end American Muscle wins again.

            Actually the insurance was only going up $20 from the Charger. With Supercars they only insure it for an amount of worth you state. So until I got it fixed up, I was only going to insure it for $50k to start.
