Default So let's say you had $1,500 extra....

So let's say you priced out the car (C7 1LT - Mag Ride, Chrome Wheels, and NPP - LBTC) then you discovered you had $1500 more to play with in factory installed items.

What would you choose?

These are ONLY items that can be added with the dealer.

What say you?

Well, if you could stretch it, go 2LT. You get sooo much more in the car. That will exceed your 1500 tho.

I'd get the transparent top, I still want one, but I think if I hold out long enough I can find a steal of a deal used local

TAX REFUND ????

Since you pointed out they can only be dealer installed, as I believe I remember you special ordered awhile back...... I would instead order a set of C7 Carbon GTX Carbon Fiber Front Splitter and Side Skirts in Carbon Fiber, and still have $250 left over to buy dealer installed SPLASH GUARDS.

You already picked factory items that I did too..... except we went 2LT.

Have the dealers parts catalog in hand and dream. Or go to Cultrag Performance and browse the website. Splitter and side skirts come to mind.

If I got a spoiler the only one I think that looks good is this one, and please don't get bent all out of shape, that is just me. With this one you are talking real cool! And I mean it. Now that's a spoiler. Impractical? Yes. But so what.

I'm re-ordering from a forum sponsored dealer. 6 weeks and my dealer still hasn't gotten allocation - getting deposit back and ordering from Mr. Furman tomorrow at 10am. 😀

Wish I knew about him originally.

Kill Chrome wheels and buy the car for $3500 less. Why on earth anyone pays $2k for extra shiny wheels is beyond me. Older guys like their shiny wheels though...

$3500 less? It's $1500 extra.

I'm 44 years old and think it jives well with Laguna Blue.

I ordered mine with everything I wanted. $1,500 would cover Expel on the front, MN license fee and some Zaino.
