I have been checking out the GC long before they came out. I just ended my lease on a 2007 benz 350 conv. I went last Sat and bought a black 3.8 loaded out, I got it home and just didn't dig the black "sparkle jelly shoes" paint job, so I took it back 2 days later and upgraded to a white 3.8 track. I put 200 miles on black 3.8 before upgrading to the white 3.8 track and I can tell you first hand after working in the automotive field for 15 years that there is a HUGE difference in these cars. The Track is a whole other animal. And yes, the limited slip makes all the difference in the world! The Track has a VERY stiff ride that some would find almost annoying, but it makes it very fun to drive. The standard 3.8 driving experience is very tame compared to a Track.
To all the people that thought the Track wasn't worth the extra 2 g's... sorry, you're wrong! It is! For what you get it is actually a steal! If you are leasing a GC 3.8 you would be foolish not to get as many options as possible because it's all residualized and you end up paying about 44% of the cost of the options over 36 months. I started looking at base 3.8s and I ending up with a track for about $40 more a month. Love the car! TC |

Thanks for the warm welcome!
Yeah, I leased mine... had to at this time. Plus it's a great tax write off! I plan on buying it at the end of the lease. The residual after 36 months is $16k and I'm sure a 3 year old GC Track with less that 30k miles on it will be worth more than that. I could even sell it and make money at the end of the lease and get a new one if they have made any considerable improvements to the car. As for right now I plan to Buy it later on. I live in the Charlotte NC area, so if there are any folks around me that want to start a car club hit me up. I want to form a Carolina GC club. This car is amazing!!!

Congrats on the purchase!
I bought the 3.8 Track 6MT, but I got black...I really wanted White, but black was the only one they had...Not to mention, they gave me one helluva deal! I've had mine for a week now. The Track Package is Wonderful! I love the car soo much! I can live with black...I just have to up my game on keeping it clean! Do you have any plans for the GC? |
