We'll do some development work, my wife will drive it and then my soon to be junior in high school daughter will have a very nice car to use as long as she is a straight A student. Great plan, but with production constraints next to impossible to get. Next to impossible for some, but piece of cake for Becky at Rodgers. It should be built in late February and deliver to us in Texas mid-March. My daughter had no idea. I was on the phone with Becky and thought handing the phone to my daughter would be a good idea.

Hello, this is LJ.
Hi LJ this is Becky.
My dad told me to ask you what's going on.
Your dad just ordered a Sonic.
Insert happy dance here.

The ZL1 kicks axx, Becky comes through on the Sonic LTZ, my daughter does a happy dance and it will be another sunny 80 degree winter day in Texas.

Life is good.

Very nice!

I generally don't condone such language, but in this case World's Largest PROFITABLE Automaker with a ZL1

The crybabies at Volkswagen are complaining about GM adding their Chinese sales to their global total.

2.99 drives a Pedderised Saleen Mustang that I would be embarrassed to drive.

So while 2.99 is out grand standing I have been playing with GM T900 (Yukon, Suburban) sway bars. What is in the market now, isn't special. We are very close to having a special effect on these beasts. It is the difference between a smile after a drive and a huge shit eatn' grin. Then there is the new FE4/5 rear sway bar and endlinks. We'll be bolting a final pre-production setup on Tag's Camaro on Monday. The designed for police use, but perfect for performance use, Impala dampers are running the final in-service evaluation along with HD and Super HD rear coils. You wouldn't believe the weight of the tactical gear the police stuff in an Impala trunk. Maybe they have it confused with a Silverado The Sonic tweaked coilovers are in production as are lowering coils for the Sonic and Cruze.

2.99 just did a burnout in the parking lot

I agree!

In all honesty, it is not even remotely enjoyable to venture into the ZL1 area anymore.

I cried when you guys left, lol. I'm ready to ban anyone without either a CAMARO in their signature or at least a GM car... The Ford trolls are all over smelling the place up...

Glad you threw in "at least a GM car" because I would have hated leaving....
