I was very excited about the z06 until the OH issue popped up (allegedly they fixed it this year, but who knows). Checked out a 16 SS - while it was cool and everything, it failed to excite me...

OP, I'll try to make it simple for you. It took me three attempts to get this shit fixed. It would've been easier for me to replace the head gasket myself.

So wait a whole year or couple of weeks to avoid the 'very early' 2016s - LOL I don't think it matters at all, it's all about luck. My 2010 was as solid as it could get. But my 2013 did have some...

So 13K for parts if you have an SS. How much is the package for 1LE owners? Looks like we at least have the wheels!

Sorry for the delay. Here is a snapshot of my service record. My rattle was gone for good - kudos to Capitol Chevy in Austin :D Hope this helps!

Cool. I'll try to post a picture of the service details later on tonight. The rattle I had was more like a sharp 'metallic' one and was audible with the back seat and all windows closed.

Mine also had exhaust rattle, but only at very low rpm while cruising at <10mph and it was coming from the rear. My dealer re-seated 'some' clip and it was gone.

Thanks, Bens1le!

OP, just a different thought - are you sure 1-4 shift thingy is not getting in your way? Or you have installed a skip shift eliminator already?

+1, raptor. By the way, OP is not buying the SS for the first time. If he was, I'd have also recommended 1LE. For first time buyers, $3500 1LE package is a steal. But for OP it'll cost around $15K...

OP, 2012 has FE4 suspension, so the handling difference may not be very dramatic. ZL1 would be a real upgrade for an SS owner. 1LE is still an SS, it does handle better but it's also slower than SS...
