Thank you. No performance upgrades planned yet. It’s getting PPF, ceramic coating and windows tinted this week. I’ll get comfortable with the car for a bit before mods start.

That's a very smart choice. A lot of people jump right into mods trying to make more power. I'm all about getting to know the car and getting it to be able to handle any power I may throw at it, rather than go the opposite route of trying to tame the power the car now makes after modifying it.

Enjoy the car. I wish I would have searched a little harder and found an A10 but, it's ok. I don't have any plans on making any additional power with this car so, the manual isn't terrible.

After researching, I was a bit worried about the rough ride with the 1LE but it’s really no worse than the car I traded. Although, I realize that’s just my opinion and everyone has a different impression. I was just pleasantly surprised and loved the drive back from PA to OH.
Welcome back - Agree the 1/LE ride quality is way OVERHYPED

Very nice find - and tough to find at that ... I have had an order ignored for 6 months now by GM - so finding one on the ground is no easy task

Beautiful car and congrats!

I recently purchased a 19' ZLE and was apprehensive after reading peoples opinion on the ride and the blind spots, and honestly....There are no blind spots for me and the stiffness of the car is exactly what I wanted coming from the car I had just like you mentioned.

I've had it for about a month now and I couldn't be happier. In fact, I'm in the process of making it a little more stiff! hehe

Enjoy the car!

I will thank you! Your whip in sig looks nasty and bet it is insanely fun to drive.

Probably helps I am only 5'11" and 170lbs sitting in this...otherwise I might complain. It's a very snug fit!

This car in 10-20yrs looking back is going to age amazingly well in this color in terms of (I remember when) and it's a classic.

It's gorgeous!
