That's a good point Tom, I forgot to mention the "real blast" part. I've had my PT GT for a year and a half and I frequently find myself saying "oh, boy, I get to drive her again" as I start her up and hear the rumble.
Also, when I catch a glimpse of her in the parking lot. She just looks so sweet. When I see her in a row of cars the front grille is so distinctive you just have to admire it.
Load her up with a load of lumber... no problem. 8' long lumber fits nicely. Take it home and unload it, then turn it around and take it for spin. When everyone else is slowing down to climb a hill, just give it a little gas and surge ahead.
Or if you prefer, take it to the track and blow the doors off of some unsuspecting Mustang, Eclipse or even quite a few Corvette models.
