It's a stealth hotrod! :lol:

429HP and 0-60 in 4.8 seconds. Top speed limited by onboard computer to 150MPH. :heh:


Luxurious and comfy too! It's home now.

Forgot to mention.

My "new" car is a 2013 Hyundai Genesis R-spec. Loved these cars from the first time I drove one. The owner's manual is about a foot thick! Gonna take me awhile to figure everything out. :cool: :lol:

I got that bad boy for my bonus this year. 4 door 1/2 ton. I don't even have to pay for the gas or even oil changes a free truck for 3 years.

I don't know much about Hyundai, but the Genesis is a pretty car. They did a nice job styling that one. I hope you enjoy it.

Just like back in the day, all the A bodies looked the same from the side. Majority of today's cars are pretty much the same except the front and rear as far as the outside.... Under the hood they can vary greatly..... As in this ride....... :)

Here's the background on why I bought the car.

My beloved F-150 nearly left me stranded 60 miles from home last week. Had it not been for the help of a kindly gentleman, I would have had to get the truck towed back home. But the guy was able to help me get it running and I drove it straight home. I was calling AAA when the nice fellow walked up and offered his help. While I was able to get it home, I did miss an important doc appointment even though I was just a half mile from the office.

Mind you, my truck is 23 years old with 185,000 miles on the clock. "Just getting broken in" has been said but almost broken down was too close for my comfort.

I've been lusting after one of these R-spec cars for 5 years now, ever since test driving a brand new one in 2012. So after the event last week, I decided not to wait anymore and acted. Loving this new-to-me car! :rockon:
