Default Just picked up! 2015 Z51 yellow coupe

Good evening guys,

my dad just picked up this 2015 Z51 LT3 7M mag rid vette(luckily we share our bikes and cars with each other so I get plenty of seat time in this beast! He Traded the SRT8 for it and boy what a difference. That car is a pig compared to this thing!

Already installed the AFE intake 5R with the DS I1000 using the 93 octane AFE specific tune. The car doesn't run bad but it sure is addicting to drive fast and make her run how she should! Heres a couple shots of her for anyone on the fence with the color!

Any suggestions on the next mods the provide the most bang for buck (excluding FI and nitrous) would be appreciated

Car looks great. Congrats

I didn't think I would like those wheels but on your car it's perfect

I was supposed to pick my 2015 Z51 Laguna Blue up yesterday but a sales man backed a truck into it....which I went into more detail about on my post "2015 wrecked..."

Seeing that yellow makes my decision even harder....it looks so good! I'm jealous of your dad. Lucky man. Also, be sure to tell him that I've visited several dealerships and have seen every single color except yellow and the green....not that that I'd get the green...but I'm just saying the yellow is VERY rare too.

Your dad will surely get lots of tail with that car...unless he's married...then I'm sure he will resist all of the succubuses.

The wheels are great. If they were an option last year, I would have definitely gone with them.

Roughly 3.4 reds for every yellow in '14

but outsold 3 other colors...& not so VERY rare.

OK, give it to us straight: Did you do anything to enhance the color in those photos? The colors seem a bit over-saturated.

The shots of just the Vette have the contrast increased because it was cloudy and the other was indoors. but the one with the chally in it was unedited and also a cloudy day. if shes freshly waxed on a sunny day it looks just as awesome as all of these shots!
