I got to admit, after anticipating the HP, price, and misc features, that was the one announcement I did not see coming at all. Surprises are a good thing.

It was mentioned a lot here, honestly the entire reveal was anti climatic as the forum had called basically everything out over the past year or so

the gps was a surprise and very cool implementation

I missed part of that. Is it offered as an option or standard. I am assuming an option.

That is a great feature to have, especially for folks with steep approaches to their driveway. And if not mistaken, he said it can store up to 1000 points. So is this by GPS location that, when you set it about 100 feet from the house, it automatically begins to lift?

I did hear him say it has memory of 1000 points/places.

I am digging that 12 inch customization display. The Mercedes S63/S65 AMGs ahve this and their new lineups in the E Series have this as well.

How big is the NAV/Radio Display? I hope its a nice size. Like, JITTERBUG sizing!!

It will be interesting to test a big. Does it compensate for speed? If you coming to spot where it is needed, when does it start lifting?

I can already think of about 3 or 4 dozen places I have to creep or go at an angle with my C6 to get over a driveway apron or a speed bump.

This is such a cool feature.

And yes, it was a great surprise for Chevy to toss that out there as a "oh by the way."

Same questions here. Is there a speed limit for it to function?

The old Lincoln Mark 8, IIRC, could lower the front of the car at around 55mph. I see no technical reason why there would be a speed limit to it, although perhaps at racing speeds it might upset the aerodynamics with negative results, but why would you carry the weight of such an accessory on the track of a real race car?

I'm guessing no speed limitations.

I wouldn't expect it on the 1LT - gotta keep the entry price low. Besides some people won't even want it.
