I agree with both you, for the reasons I highlighted.

Question : Will the 2017 1LE come with DOT 4 fluid, or DOT 3? At that (now higher) price point, did the "hard working" engineers have their say, or was it the bean counting suits?

Hmmmmmmm...

Idk, but it does come with a catch can the dot 4 fluid is probably a $250 option, lol

The more I see it, the more I like it.

Can't wait to order one

Looks like I might take the bait in the trade-in.

Tough choice. Either keep and do the mods I want or start off with the baseline of the 2017 1LE. It depends on the trade and the pricing, I need to stop by and see what the asking price at the dealership on a build order.

With the difference you have to pay for the trade-in, you could build a kick ass Gen5 1LE and wopp lots ass.

I thought about it but I'm goin the mod path. Plus I like the LS3 better than the LT1 as far as mods go. I'm not sold on DI yet.

Yeap I know... if the numbers are off then keeping the 2015 want be a tough choice. Even considering the suspension, brake upgrades, engine up grades i.e. cam and supercharged at a rough value of 13k.

Bottom line is the monthly payment and what kind of down payment equals more than 13k in the 1st 12 months of payment. That 13k can be spent on the mods. Thats how I will judge in pulling the trigger. Right now the only investment I have made was new tires, brake pads and catch can.

Looking at trade-in value with KBB I am within the range of what I owe which is 27k. So that want be factor of being upside down.

Maybe $10K over the base price of a 1SS which would make it quite a bargain assuming the base price of a 1SS is about $37K. Most of that on the list can be had on a 1SS now with the exception of the E differential, wheels and seats and of course the suspension tweaks. I think well below the price of a fully optioned 2SS.
