Yeah, do agree on the pop. The dark accents don't stick out but it's gonna look mean in NFG.

That said, I personally want Blue but so far I haven't been too impressed with how it looks on the 1LE. So I'm kinda torn. I have cyber grey now so although I think NFG is awesome, I feel like if i get it everyone is gonna think i'm still driving the same car lol.

Its gonna look awesome. This is kropscamaro16's car. Obviously not a 1LE but I think it's a fair representation of what you can expect. Looks killer with bigger tires and dark wheels.

It seems to be a lighting thing with NFG, probably more so that any other color. I have seen it look lighter, such as at the reveal, and real dark in some other shots.

If I was a little younger I would get black, but NFG is the second choice.

It does say that, but it might be miss-worded to mean a wrapped hood and then also black painted mirrors. I think we'll have to wait and see how they arrive. It doesn't seem logical to have wrapped mirrors when they could just as well install painted black mirrors that already went through the paint shop as a big batch.

This I didn't know; different grilles for the 1LE's. Although to these eyes the SS's looks the same, it's the LT's that looks more aggressive, and IMO pretty cool compared to the normal LT's grille.

To me this was implied, but it's good to see it in writing.

I guess this should've been obvious, but it's also good news in terms of getting track pads and also greater parts volume availability to possibly keep costs reasonable. By extension, that implies the rotors will be ferritic nitro-carburized [FNC] coating, which you can read about in the attached PDF when GM introduced the FNC coating a few years ago.

I'm surprised they said they couldn't tell a difference between the V6 and V8s splitter. A subtle thing..but the V8 splitter very clearly dives down towards the ground under the DRLs...

Anyways - good find! All 1LE news is good news!
