New Convertible delivered - first 150 miles

My new RS convertible was delivered a couple days ago. V6 auto, 1LT, tech package, hi polish wheels, shadow gray. Love this thing. I have a 2018 CTS and the chassis feel is very similar. It's definitely set up stiffer on the suspension and the steering is heavier and more direct. And the CTS is no slouch in those areas. The CTS is the turbo 4 and I really like the V6 better. The four is great down low but's there's some lag and it dies at higher speeds. The V6 just keeps on spinning and sounds way better. Trying to keep it under 4k for break in but I've done a couple of blasts. Has plenty of power for me and the handling is sports car like. I had a Q60 coupe and it reminds me a lot of that, especially the engine. The Camaro handles better and the tranny shifts much quicker. Mine was a 2019 leftover and picked it up for a whisker under 30k which I'm really happy with for a convertible RS V6.

The convertibles are awesome. Glad you are enjoying it.

Looks good, man. Very clean I had to do a double take because the top of the car in the background threw me off for a second

Congrats! I have a 2018 V6 myself. I agree, the V6 is a fun little engine. Did you get the automatic?

Yup automatic. I have a 76 MGB and three motorcycles when I feel like shifting.
