Default It's Here!

From my dealer....

I'm out of town, of course. Will go get it tomorrow.

NRB Z51, NPP, yellow calipers, black wheels, black interior, etc. Haven't yet decided if I'm going to let go of the Camaro....

Dealer will probably add $5K and sell it before you get home!







Kidding! Looks great! Congrats.

They did initially show the new pricing, but we got that sorted (ordered in Dec).

Super excited for you. I was jumping out of my skin when I went to pick mine up. Two and a half months later, I still get excited when I go to fire it up (especially if I'm going for a fun drive), and it's my daily driver...

Love this car. Your color combo will be striking.

And we're home!

More pics once I get it in the sun tomorrow. Put a whole 20-25 miles on it, and got 1 wave/thumbs-up, and tons of young boys staring with mouths agape.

This weekend, after "chores" of some items on the honey-do list, I'll get to working on the pile of mods I ordered while waiting on the car. Carbon skirts and splitter aren't due till next week, but I have a bunch of smaller items.... ☺

Good for you, congrats. I have nearly the same car, but with red calipers and Kalahari interior.
