Default Little Black Book gift - a question
Received mine today - 9 weeks after delivery FYI.

The leather pouch containing the book is adrenaline red, as is my interior. My question is whether all are AR or if they actually match it to your car.

My understanding is that they match your interior.

On a side note, I'll say that the pouch leather smells waaaaaay better than the leather in the car. I know it's the same, but the car leather must be treated differently. The pouch leather smells intoxicatingly good.

Got mine today, too, exactly 12 weeks after purchase. It's AR like the car's interior. Smells good.

Default Is this a US only gift?
Bought my Z51 coupe back in October and no gift yet... I'm north of the 49th parallel so wondering if this is a US only thing.

Does the book come with the car? Is it a prerequisite that you have to have ordered the vehicle build? What if you purchased the vehicle from the dealer show room and did not submit the original build order? Where does one get the book?

I have a little black book from my 1999 FRC.
