Oh snap, I see on facebook. You should have waited until April 27th to pick it up. I would totally do something like that.
Haha, its not hard to figure out....but I am very excited. The car looks so effin mean. Great color/interior/wheel combo.

color?
Black on a black/titanium(white) 2 tone interior. The wheels are competition grey. Mileage is 6600.
Dixond, I am actually planning on leaving her mostly stock and using the warranty should anything arise(I toasted the warranty on my last car within the first 5k miles). Not sure how long that will last, but I am going to do my damndest to tinker with cosmetic mods instead of power ones. After all, the car is nearly as fast as my last one in stock form.

Not even LT's? :D
LT's are only worth about 10whp on this car. The stock mani's/cat's flow very well. Intake and a tune can net me ~480whp and is easily reversible. Probably do that if I am going to do anything.

Do you still have your tuning software from your old Vette or did you sell it? If you still have it I say it needs to be tuned within 2 hours of delievery. Were you able to keep the CCWs or were they trashed?
I sold the tuning software and was able to pull the ccw's and sell them as well. Picking the car up this evening after work and hope to have some pics up tonight if possible.

It's in Myrtle Beach w/ a buddy of mine who is cleaning up the wiring, installing A/C, installing oil cooler, and other misc small stuff. It's been up there since the first part of july though, but he hasn't been able to work on it yet due to 24 Hrs of Lemons preparation. Should start wrenching finally after Sept 14th (when the race is).

Guys, I am just completely smitten with this car. The power and delivery is insane for a stock car. The amount of grip the car has is RETARDED....the seats are DEFINITELY not up to the task of keeping you in place if your going to flex its muscles in the twisties. Brakes have great feel and obviously have no issues shedding the speed. The chassis feels so much tighter than my Z51...possible due to the fixed roof. It really is that much more car over a ordinary C6. I really didn't think it would be at all, but man oh man was I wrong.

Just carry your bill of sale and proof of insurance...it is good for something like 21 days from the purchase date. I would not use a tag that is registered to a different vehicle, that can get you into problems with the po'lice
