2014 LS3 at 38000 miles. Installing long tubes so I took the plugs out. Spark plug on the left is #2 cylinder. Right side is #1. All looked good except #2

What is the consensus on this?

Yes I agree. Just never seen one of these destroyed in 38k miles

Just replace them. I don't think it's anything to lose sleep over.

I would recheck the new plug after about 2000-3000 miles. It is unusual, but not unheard of.

If you change them recheck as mentioned above and if it’s burned down again look for lean out in that cylinder (clogged injector).

No Worries , replace them with NGK V copper plugs and check them every 10000 miles .

Best thing about NGK is for $22 you swap them every 3rd oil change and roll on lol

Mine looked just as bad at 38k in my C6.

Strange. Looks marginally hotter. Is it tuned? What octane fuel?

It has only been tuned for 3k miles. It's tuned for 92
