All I can say is I'm sorry. I used to cross the top end of I-285 every day twice to and from work. I avoid it at all costs now.

Just beautiful build, congrats!
Love the bi-color seats.
"Well worth it" does not even start doing it justice!

I picked up my 2LT, Z51, Stingray R from the dealership on Saturday. The car was sent to the dealership as a retail unit with a LOT of options. It has everything I wanted, plus a several other features that make it a very well optioned car. They had two previous deals on the car that both fell through before I bought it for MSRP.

The only issue at pickup was they had the tires at 36/37 psi cold. I did not notice until I was on the road to my son's house in the Dallas area, so I did not lower them until after I arrived. I went with 31 psi cold for my trip home to Houston the next day and the car rode much smoother. I varied my speed as much as possible on the interstate and cleaned it up once I got home.

At the dealership in Granbury TX:


After I got home the next day in the Houston area (before cleaning it up):
