Just Ordered new GS
I've just ordered a GS 4LT with essentially every option available
. This is an upgrade from a 06 Coupe I traded in. Is there anything I should be concerned or worried about with this car?
Quick description of my new car is: Super Sonic Blue (wanted Carlisle Blue but was told by dealer Chevy is no longer producing that color), Red Calipers, Dual Mode Exhaust, Magnetic Selective Ride Control, Roof Package, Blue Stitching, etc.
I have till Tuesday to make changes, lmk if I'm missing something...thx!

Oh, forgot to mention I did get the Chrome Wheels and I am picking it up in KY! I want the whole expirience. I could have gotten one from a local dealer but for $500, it'll be a blast!

I would strongly recommend a front and rear alignment at approximately 1,000 miles.
If you don't plan to track your GS, have all features set to the mean to maximize your tire tread life.
Congrats!

I did get the six speed, and boy am I itching to be in that cabin! Six-eight weeks is the proposed wait, I'm sure it'll feel like six-eight years! Once I do complete my tour and the presentation of my car, as well as the celebration that will follow, I'll log on and you should be able to recognize my enthusiasm and hapiness!

My 2010 GS was my first Vette and I still can't wipe the smile off of my face every time I get in and start her up.
Don't forget to get the Mild to Wild switch from one of our supporting vendors. You'll love it!

That is precisely how I'm managing my time. I'm hesitant to order anything for the interior since I can't find a 4LT locally to physically see what I'm getting but as far as gagetory, I'm considering the Mild to Wild remote for the exhaust and the relay to open/close my windows with the key fob.
