New 2017 Red Hot 2SS owner

Hey guys. It's been a long time coming but I'm finally out of the shadows with my own Camaro. First one ever, too. Picked it up last Monday. It has NPP and NAV, along with the black wheels of course. I'm still in my break-in so all the fun has yet to start.

The original plan was Hyper Blue, but Red Hot in person is something special, especially after I put more black on the car. These cars are nothing but special, and the 2SS interior is to die for.

The 392 Charger is my step-father's, if anybody's curious. I stopped by for a visit and couldn't resist the shot.

I pulled the NPP fuse day one, and this car sounds too good.

Planned mods at the moment are black bow ties, the MRR Z28 wheels w/ 1LE tires, ACS spoiler, GM front splitter, GM dark tail lights, tint (not sure how dark, cops are lax with it here in Florida), 1LE hood wrap, and the GM cold air intake if that ever comes out. The rest, I'm not sure on, including a catch can.

Thoughts?

Yeah, I've heard both ends as far as catch fans go. I definitely plan on keeping it for a long time though.

@Yummyutoo Great looking car. I'm considering roto-fab, but that dealer tune with GM's CAI is tempting. Have to wait and see. 26% sounds good.

I'll have to wait a while to start the big mods sadly, but I'm really looking forward to it. I'll definitely be posting my journey, if anybody notices.

Ha, it's all good. Thanks man, I feel like I'm still having the Red Hot debate in my head even after the fact.

It'll be a while before I stat my planned mods. I already can't wait!

Yes, Red Hot is much better in person than in pics.

man that is nice....i had a red iroz-z and loved it. big head turner. i was leaning hard on a hyper blue model..but maybe i need to go look at a red model first.

congrats on the new car, did you get the black interior or the tan leather option?
