First World ZL1 Problems

Lets hear'em
30 days here, and I dont have buyers remorse, but I do have quite a few first world car issues....lol

Brake dust!!!! enough said

I'm not a millennial, I need a CD player!!!!

All hi's no lows....must be Bose...Adding a sub as soon as a i can

Did i mention Brake dust.....

I love cold start ups like the next man/woman, but I wish there was away to bypass that explosion of noise if I wanted to. Early morning starts get me wifey aggro because I woke the baby, and everybody else in the house.

wireless charger is worthless for my Galaxy S7 Edge

i wish my seat could recline back just a little further for my longer trips

gas needle seems to move no matter how careful I try to drive. My terminator cobra is heavily modded and doesnt sip as much gas off the boost than the Z

the need to wash my hands before each and every drive......

no lug wrench or jack included...just realized yesterday because of a thread...

Guess thats all at the top of my head.

If you take the rubber cover off the charge area it will charge your s7 it does mine. And yeah the brake dust is stupid. I clean my wheels after every drive.

Brake dust!!! 2nd that...

Wireless charger... agreed... my Note 4 doesn't fit. However, my wife has the S6 Edge and it works.

I bought a steering wheel cover that sorta matches. This saves that "sueded" steering wheel. AutoZone Steering Wheel Cover.

Was not aware of the lug nut thing....

I'm not sure if the about in the Z but, I installed the Powerstop Z26 pads on my car and there is practically zero dust! One of the best mods so far

Few things I've come to wish for is a power telescoping steering wheel to assist in ingress/egress with auto exit memory enabled, uConnect for talk to text capability would be cool and a better designed third brake light that doesn't look so out of place.

-Look for threads related to different brake pads in ZL1 forum

I'm not a millennial, I need a CD player!!!!
-Take CDs to .wav and put on USB Drive - No loss in quality and organized

All hi's no lows....must be Bose...Adding a sub as soon as a i can
-agreed with factory settings, bring the highs down and it's ok

Did i mention Brake dust.....

I love cold start ups like the next man/woman, but I wish there was away to bypass that explosion of noise if I wanted to. Early morning starts get me wifey aggro because I woke the baby, and everybody else in the house.
-Hold power button for 5 seconds with clutch released, go into settings and change exhaust to Stealth Mode, now start car, then go to Track and keep it there

wireless charger is worthless for my Galaxy S7 Edge
-remove rubber mat, enjoy wireless charging

i wish my seat could recline back just a little further for my longer trips

gas needle seems to move no matter how careful I try to drive. My terminator cobra is heavily modded and doesnt sip as much gas off the boost than the Z
-Averaged 22-24 MPG on 300 mile trip between NJ - CT, you are having too much fun in 1st through 4th

the need to wash my hands before each and every drive......

no lug wrench or jack included...just realized yesterday because of a thread...
-No spare, why would they include them

Guess thats all at the top of my head.
