Just picked up my 1LE and have to say I am pretty impressed. Got exactly what I was looking for, 1LE + PDR and only the hash decal being added. Several other models for sale had many other accessories added which I didn't want. Ended up getting it about 9% under msrp, which I felt was fair but I was bummed that my 71 c10 didn't qualify for the chevy loyalty discount as it was only for 99+ GM cars.

Since I was taking it easy and driving mainly on the highway, I was pleased to see 22mpg around 75mph. I do like the short shift, and even though I'm 6'4 255, I feel reasonably comfortable in the cabin. Even with a helmet I have adequate headroom, although my seat is fully back and slightly reclined.

As I mentioned my first post, the seats are pretty tight on my lats, and I just wish there was some manual adjustment that could loosen the bolsters to make the seat a little wider, but it's not uncomfortable. It will be interesting to see if the seats break in a little and the bolsters loosen a tad. My dimensions are odd so I just chalk that up to me being outside the box.

I will be daily driving this car so it's going to be an interesting test to see how everything holds up after 15K+ miles a year. The apple car play is an interesting add on, but siri still sucks. I had to yell the address at her several times before I got fed up and entered it manually.

I am planning on doing is getting a clear bra, built in radar detector, windows tinted and probably the knee pads and if funds allow, I will try to get another rim set with all season tires and leave the stock ones for the track. I live in Northern California and have a few track days booked in the next few months at Sonoma and Thunderhill and with my past experience with track/street cars, I will probably go through tires and brakes fairly quickly which could get a little pricey.

I haven't owned a fun car in a while (sold a 997c2s when my wife got pregnant) but now that the baby is about 2, she will fit nicely in the backseat which is why I was in the market for a 2+2. While I won't have to drive with her frequently, it's nice to know I have that option for worst case scenarios. I took her for a drive and she loved the sounds.

Either way looking forward to putting on some miles with the 1LE with the semi-frequent track days!

You are going to love it man. I had a 2008 C6 Z51 a couple of years ago and like most Vette owners only drove it when it was nice out and not all the time. When I bought the 1LE I told the wife I was driving it when I wanted to with no regards to mileage and or weather conditions. We bought it as a 3rd vehicle knowing that it would allow us to get the miles off of her 2016 Audi SQ5. In the almost 2 months and 2200 miles I have owned the car I have drove my truck maybe 3 times so far.

I grab the keys for the 1LE almost every time hands down, it is hard to not grab them.

Clear bra is on the agenda for mine in a couple of weeks, then I will have the GM dark tail lights on order along with the illuminated door sills and a GM indoor car cover. I already put the padded micro suede knee bolsters in along with the micro suede dash pad.

I'm looking forward to it, where did you find the knee pads and dash kit?

I got mine local because I get wholesale pricing, but the link that was provided is actually cheaper than my wholesale price.
