Default A few Black Rose Metallic pics...

Got window tint put on today as dark as Minnesnowta law allows anyway. And a few other random shots...

Still about 4-5 weeks out from bringing it home, /cry.

You know when they announced that color and seeing pictures I was not at all interested, but after seeing it in person it is damn hot! It is true lay impressive in sun light. Congrats on the car!

Beautiful car. Spring is actually coming and you will be able to get it out and roll with it. Best of luck and go hammer some smell-cats LOL

Honestly I had the same reaction. The pictures grew on me and when I first saw it in person... DAMN!

Thanks. Just waiting a few more weeks for better weather until I bring it home from the dealers. Still seems so far away.

No and good eye. I bought some and had the dealer swap them out during the PDI. I really don't care for any chrome (or the red Z) on the car. I'm going to have to figure out something with those badges.

They should be an option IMHO.

C5North.........Drive that beast home would ya!! The roads in MN are clear and the temps have been above 32 for the past three weeks. What are you waiting for?

Please tell me the photos are before the dealer lowered the car. Nice color combo, by the way.
