Have had my 2016 Z51 2LT for about a month and wanted to post how happy I've been with this beautiful car and with my local chevy dealer, Shelor Chevrolet in Christiansburg VA.

After driving with rain spots on it last week, I did a wash, clay, polish, and wax yesterday. Since the car is a 2016 built in Nov 2015, I figured it was time to do a polish/wax. Wanted to do it the weekend I brought it home, but had to wait due to other demands. Since I'm waiting for an order from Adams, this was a full detail with maguiers products, since they are easy to get at local stores. The ultimate polish was a PITA to work with, but end result was good. I am looking forward to comparing to Adams.

For the 500-mile oil change, I brought it into the giant service center (Shelor sells many makes), and they did great. They immediately covered the seat with plastic, and informed me that they would be using Mobil 1. Took a little more than 30 minutes and it was ready to go. When I got home, I checked the level, and it was right between the holes on the dipstick.

Here are a few photos of my DSOM beauty,















By the way, I'm thinking of this for my custom plate. I'm an aerospace and ocean engineering professor whose expertise is in computational fluid dynamics and hydrodynamic turbulence.

 

Seemingly orange is a hard color to photograph, but yours is without question one of the better I've seen. Standing tall!

 

 

Excellent color choice...DSOM...I also have a 2LT Z51...thought I may have some regrets after trading in my Crystal Red beauty...so glad I did. I hope GM decides to bring back this color in near future.

 

Nice wheels, prof. I like the plate, do it.
Also good that you got a dealer that is capable.

 

Looks great, really like that color combo.Sounds like all is good and you are enjoying it that is the way it should be.

 

Well, the forum gets saturated with the disgruntled and the small percentage of people who have a legitimate issue. I just figured I'd add to the positive energy of the forum.

 

I like the color. Congrats an in joy. It will be a no there week before I can get behind the wheel of mine.

 

You did a great job detailing the car. It really pops in the pics.

 

Very nice. Good to see someone else enjoying their Corvette. I have had my 2016 for about three weeks and am loving it. Great cars.

 

Congrats and enjoy your beautiful Vette!

 

Congrats!! I love the orange and go figure gm drops it for an old fart color. My next z06 will be orange or of course yellow. Adam's is the best stuff I've used!! I was a Zymol user only and Adam's is the best stuff I've used!! I was mine every time I drive it cause it's so easy!!! Great color bud, and best of luck.

 

Love DSOM

 

Looking good. Enjoy!!!!
