Which all the hype and then the extra power my Z06 is getting.
I had chance to great deal on a new one.

I have one coming. I am excited to feel the improvement in handling.

Excellent!! I think you'll like it very much!

You say you're getting a "new" one. Are you getting it from DSC? Or are you buying it from one of their dealers and it's NOS?

The reason I ask is because if it's been in the dealer's inventory for a while it may be one of the ones that's having overheating problems.

And, if it is from older stock, it might need the firmware upgrade and you'll need to load the latest .pdts file.

If you're getting it directly from DSC, never mind - it will be the latest and greatest and should have the newest firware!!

The member I bought my 2017 from relayed to me he had just bought one before he decided to sell the car. So It worked out great for me. I think I will install it in my 2015 instead. Sounds like GM has put the improved the software for the mag ride already in the 2017's.

It will make a drastic difference to either one, put it in the one you drive the most. I had one in my 16 and now in my 17.
