Just picked up a new SHO here in Michigan fulfilling a long time dream of joining the family.   About 1,500 miles over the last month and just love the car.   Getting ready to do 35% tint this coming week.

Looking forward to reading the opinions and picking up tips from fellow SHO owners.   Just wanted to say hi.

Welcome aboard, Mason, congrats on the '15!  Put up some pics (even dealership pics will do if that's all you got for now)!  What other vehicles were you considering to buy?

I just got out of driving a GMC Ext Cab truck for work.  I've always run the sedans out of Marysville, OH and briefly thought about getting another one or those.  Wow, am I glad I went with a SHO.  Great ride going down the road and so much fun to drive.

Picked up car this evening after having 35% tint installed all around and "limo" tint on moonroof.  Wouldn't have minded going a little darker but afraid of police.

Gotta keep the LEOs happy :)
