Thanks!. And yes, well aware of black's upkeep needs. The SS I traded was also black. I'm already twitching because I need to perform full correction on this paint and won't even be able to think about it until sometime next week.

Also seems I have the supercharger rattle... may be visiting Becky sooner than I'd hoped. More on that as I get more time to spend time with it.

Congrats! Good call on the wheel stops. Wouldn't want to scrape your splitter in your own garage haha.

Very nice! I want a Zl1 but they sold the one I was gonna test drive. I might go for a 1LE and just super charge that.

Great car by the way!

Ahhh, but that is the trick... Take the flip flop off. I drive barefoot or with as thin solved a shoe as possible. When I have dress shoes on (thick soles and less pedal feel) I'm not nearly as smooth. I will say this though, the manual in the Zl1 is much smoother and more forgiving than my SS. I'm having a tough time adjusting to the 6200 red line vs. 6500.
