Finally decided to upgrade

I finally decided to upgrade from my 2016 Laguna Blue Z51 to a GS. The wife got the major vote on this one and picked a 19 Long Beach Red Vert. Got to say we love the car and it rides so much different than the 16. Hard to believe the difference. Already have the first 500 done and oil changed, let me tell you it was hard doing the breaking period after trading in a Z51 that you could play with.

Nice ride to be sure. Looking at your garage wall, looks like you may be a "Boomer" sub guy. I worked on those at Holy Loch. Retired RMC (skimmer). Thanks for your service.

LBR is my favorite. Classic.

In the right light, long beach red looks very close to Candy Apple Red. I think it is a tad darker though.

Yes, both are MSRC. They change is worth it. I was really on the fence about having the update done on the 16 but I would tell anyone if the difference is anything like the difference I am seeing it is well worth the money to do it.

No boomers, all fast attacks but we also pulled into Holy loch. Been there a few times for some repairs.
