2017 Grand Sport Torch Red-1 week of ownership
09/13/16 Delivery of Ordered 17' Grand Sport.
I am a finance manager at a Socal Chevrolet dealership. My shift at work didn't start until 1 PM. At 11 AM, one of my salesman Facetimes me the delivery of my 2017 Grand Sport 1LT from the carrier.
With absolutely NO CHILL
, i rushed to work to make sure no one touched it after PDI. I had the Splitters and front lip uninstalled to get it wrapped with Clear Bra first.
Here are the following Options:
1. 1LT
2. Torch Red
3. Adrenaline Red
4. Safety Belts Red
5. PDR
6. Carbon Flash Exterior Package
7. Black Wheels
8. 7 Speed Manual
I built the most purist form of the grand sport can be in 7 speed manual without all the excessive comfort creatures that I already have in my Volt.
It's been a week and I JUST got pass the 500 mile break in period.
If anyone in Socal want to meet up and go for a drive, PM me! I am SO IN LOVE with this car. Previously I owned a V6 Liberty Walk Challenger and this is such a nice upgrade!

That looks killer in red and I like the black calipers with your color.
Have you messed around with any burnouts and drifts yet?

Congrats!
Check out the Socal forum. There is a run planned for this weekend. If I don't run with that group, I may do my own.
Edit: No can spell.

I am looking to get a volt as a DD for a long commute to work 14 days a month. How do you like it? I am looking to get a 1st gen and have mostly HWY miles.
