Ha, ha.

True story. In 1997 I bought a new Z28. At the time we also still had a 1995 Z28 that my wife was driving. I had mine a few weeks when I happened to notice my new one did not have fog lights on it. Even the window sticker showed it should have them.

I took it to the dealer and they were dumbfounded. It turns out it did not even have the wiring harness for them. Needless to say they put them on for me. I guess the fog light guy at the factory was out sick the day it was built

Lol. It's still happening ! Check this out at 2:05 where Mike shows this 2017 ZL1 came with CF hood, yet it wasn't ordered nor does it show on the window sticker. Lol.

Friday built car?

Better to have extra stuff than get shorted. Then I would worry about what else is not there.

Apparently the paint on the ZL1 is not so good. I guess you are supposed to keep it under 70 for the first 1500 miles or your paint could come right off and only sheet metal is left. Does anyone know if that is true?

Now I'm concerned if they are using a 'heavy' paint and it will slow the car down.

Ok, I'm just gonna go with the DeLorean option.

True story, when they started putting paddle shifters on C6 Corvettes a few years ago a guy took delivery of a car that had the paddle shifters.....on a car with a manual transmission.

Yes you can. If it's a girl, you reply, "why do you need so many shoes, you only have two feet."

Or if it's a guy, you say, "Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy horsepower. Which is pretty much the same thing."

So if you go above 65 mph than the paint starts to chip away?
