go 2010 GT500, the iron block can handle a TON of boost compared to the aluminum ones used afterward and a relatively low mileage example can be had for less than the price of a new 2016 GT.

2005's S197 was a really great retro look. But the 2010 facelift is my favorite. It has just the right blend of retro and modern style that makes the 2005 model look dated in a way that I wasn’t expecting.

Which is why the ‘05-09 design will never appeal to me ever.

I LOVE the novelty of the turn signals! I could watch that for hours. But I can't decide which is better, the S197 or S550 iteration.

Bright colors on S197s are great.
