Hey everyone! Looking at taking the plunge on a GT500 and had a question about daily driving.

I live in Houston and have a 30 mile 45 min drive each way. How is the gearing and shiftability setup for rush hour style traffic? I know in 6th at 80mph the engine is at about 1700 rpm so that is good.

Dealers won't let you test drive so I can't get a first hand account. I have read all the posts in this section and didn't see anyone tackle this question before. Apologies if it was and I missed it.

Paul

It has plenty of power 0-180 so there is no real issue. You could let off the clutch and the car would move plenty without applying the gas.

It is not different than any other high power car in traffic. If is the stock clutch, (which is pretty stout either way), it will be something you get used to regardless.
