Thanks! Only mod I'm doing is window tint. At least for a few years. Some electrical things I'll be doing the new few days. Hardwire my V1 to the mirror. Got the TAP from my Charger.
Figure out dash cam wiring. I'll need a new wire harness since I had to cut it out of my Charger.
I took it shopping yesterday. Up 95 to BJ's. I was able to get everything in the hatch I bought.
The car drove great. It's very smooth at 80+. And again I'm a bigger guy & was impressed my back wasn't in pain & I was comfortable the ride there & back. About 45 minutes each way.
But my thighs are right against the console & door. Made those areas a bit warm. Car is very easy driving until you get on it. Around my area normal driving it's well balanced & not too harsh. Loving it so far!

Beautiful car. I recently picked up a 2014 M7 w/1LT. Had a previous '05 C6 w/3LT and was a bit concerned that I'd miss all the 'comfort' accessories. But haven't one bit. Still have power seats, as you mentioned, as well as power steering wheel adjustment. Those, to me, are the biggies. And Corvette seats are extremely comfortable in a supportive way. Enjoy your ride and drive safe!
