I have my seat nearly all the way back, no way any human with legs is fitting back there.

Easy enough to fix, I guess. I'm going to re-evaluate after my 1st year with the car.

I haven't noticed any noise associated with the throttle. I run in Sport mode, so perhaps the engine noise always drowns it out?
Yes, you can get a plug in harness to add an amp and/or a sub if you so choose. But doesnt that go against the purpose of the 1LE?

I only had the Monsoon in that car for maybe a few days before I tore it out and upgraded it. But, from what I remember the Monsoon sounded better, it definitely had more bass. But it was far from good from what I remember, hence why I yanked it all out...

Not really... I've had a sub in my previous cars that I track. I just remove the box at the track. Takes like 30 seconds.

This isn't a purpose built track car. It is a street car that you can take to the track. 90% of its life will likely be on the street for me as a daily driver. I'll do 6 track weekends a year probably.

Now putting a sub in a Z28 of a 350R is starting to seem silly.

I do wish they had added the Bose systems as an option for the 1LE.

Most disappointing feature of the car is body modification (dents) in 4 places. Check your cars over very carefully before driving away from the dealer. Avoid my mistake.

I'm big into sound systems as well. I posted about it before, i think i even made a thread. I wanted to know if anyone changed the system in their 1LE. Curious to know what they put and if they have any pictures. I fell in love with the alpine system i had in my previous car. Alpine type r speakers with their 8 channel amp i believe. Type R subwoofer. It absolutely cranked. But it sounded so damn good the louder it got. That's what impressed me was the clarity at high volume.

I don't i will last past 3 months before mine gets an identical system. The same trusted shop also does tinting, its actually about a mile from the dealer. I'm thinking about taking it straight there for tints after i pick it up. I made the mistake my previous time, the windows had water spots that weren't properly taken off. Had those spots the whole time underneath the tint. Hey you live and learn.

By the way it should arrive any day now! i will pick it up this weekend

I grew up rolling around in the hatch of my Mom's 280Z. At least this one has 'seats'

Reg. endcaps, yes I didn't get them, and since GM is not making spares nobody has any idea when they will come in.
I was thinking of dremeling mine into a flowtie....

Power seats are a letdown. Added weight and the 11" difference between my wife and my height is annoying at power seat speed. Pull, slide, done. If they had memory for the keys it would'be been forgiven.

Stereo is not great but sounds good enough for me. Handling and overall performance is why I bought this car and it deliver's that big time for the money.

I have a couple gripes though.

1. The car should come with small clean splash guard's or more clear protection on it to prevent paint chips, which I have in 280 miles. These tires throw rocks more than my Z51 C7 did. I will touch it up and take it to my clear bra guy before driving anymore miles.

2. Very minor, but I don't like how if you rest year hand near the shifter you can change the drive mode accidently very easily.

So far that's it

Yeah would be nice if at least the drivers side had memory, even my 2003 Z06 had that, and it was nice.
