Only problems are the damn paint peeling at the seams and the non powered pass seat being non powered and sitting to low. Oh, and trying to keep the onlookers away from the car. It can really get out of hand.

This is the only problem i have had and it was fixed in 2 days no sweat. Also I didn't pay MSRP. I paid well under. 2SS/RS LS3 MSRP: $35,915, I paid $35,600 out the door, meaning taxes, fees, plates, everything plus a car cover.

What is that stuff?

lack of paint... it peeled off. I has occured on other cars in the same and other areas as well. If it is going to happen to you, I'd say it will happen right away. I had about 1000 miles when it started. This is after about 1700 miles. Got real bad by 2000 when I got it fixed. Good as new now... hope it lasts!

NEEDLESS TO SAY I DID NOT ACCEPT THAT VEHICLE, BUT THEY DID TRY TO PUSH IT ON ME WITH SAYING YOU DROVE IT OFF THE LOT ITS YOURS WE WILL PUT A NEW MOTOR IF NEEDED, AFTER 16 MILES I WASNT READY FOR A NEW MOTOR ... HOPR NO ONE ELSE HAS AHD THIS PROBLEM .

I doubt very much the dealer let you walk away from the car unless they kept your deposit which has to be close or more than the depreciation $$ the car took. You bought the car, they fixed the problem. It is not a lemon hence Lemon Law does not apply. But it is now a used car. Try again.

Contrary to what he said, you have like 3 days (in some states) after a purchase to return a car. There may be some mileage penalty (not likely if its only got 16) but I did it once. Really pisses the dealer off but i think you have some grounds here. They will be much more receptive if you agree to buy another one.

On the other hand, just take the car with the new engine. It will be fine. Many MANY first and second gens had engines replaced under warranty. It nothing really.

The only problem ive had with mine so far is the old farts touching it and leaving finger prints on it. The kids around here go absolutely nuts over it..I get gatherings in the parking lots and thumbs up while driving down the road. Definitely a car you dont want if you dont like attention.
