I had to do it!

My wife's been driving an '04 Coupe 6mt for a while now and I really took a liking to it. So this evening I traded in my Ram SRT10 for an '05 fully loaded coupe AT with 31k miles. I did very well on the trade and the selling price was awesome. It's black on black by the way. My first impression was that it felt faster than my wife's coupe!

That doesn't matter, though, because those two black Gs look awesome in my garage. Pics to come shortly

congrats! the only reason the AT 'feels' faster though is because it has more torque
than the MT, but that doesnt matter... post up pics!

Good question! I bought a sedan. I'm not sure why I put coupe up there. Anyhow, I picked up a sedan yesterday. In comparing them both I'd give the coupe the edge in outside appearance. That's about all I'd give it, though.

It was fun but I couldn't drive it anywhere. It was almost 3 years old with 15k miles. The truck just go too much unwanted attention. The problem wasn't the truck it was other people that don't know how to respect stuff that isn't theirs.

Now I have far nicer car that allows me fly under the radar a little bit easier.

When I really want to drive I'll take the coupe but I really like the feel of the sedan. It's a much smoother ride. I do like to run through the gears, though.

It would have been nice to find one for the price I paid with 6MT.

The nav in these cars is cool but grossly overpriced from the factory.

Sorry, but I would have to disagree. I have always hated 4door cars especially with my other passion old mopars but I love the lines of the sedan G much better than the coupes. I'm sure not many people agree with me but when you look at a car like ttrank's...so no more

Did you happen to have a yellow one? We have a yellow one at home and it gets a lot of mishaps too...I've had to replace 2 tires already...I hate people who cant respect other people's property.

Congrats. You probably feel faster than the wifes coupe because you are faster than the wifes coupe

Pics would be nice...of both of them.

But in your first post you said you got a coupe...?
