Zaino? Did I wake up in 1999?


Awesome pics of the build, though.

To each his own, but I'd recommend a good PPF for the paint prior to any coatings.

That’s all I use on my fun cars. The shine is still better than anything else I’ve tried.

I won’t drive it that much and I’m not a fan of the PPF look.

You're my hero for having that collection and the ability to just let them rest. No way I would be able to contain myself...

Great pics of the assembly line. It’s nice to get to see some of the assembly process. I got to see my ‘78 WS6 Trans Am being assembled at the Van Nuys plant. The assembly line certainly has gotten more advanced since then.

Check out the website in my signature. You can see many photos from the Van Nuys Plant.

All joking aside my gut feeling is if Leonard’s 23 ZLE was ordered and delivered good luck to anyone thinking your getting a 24.

I agree with LS. PPF is not all that. I agree with him. I don’t like the way it looks

Leonard has, hm, very leveragable acquaintances inside the plant, so his car kinda doesn't count, or at least isn't fully representative of the general customer experience.

Agreed but one must ask why he didn’t wait for a 24. If I had a insider I would be ordering a last year model. I feel his order is a tell.
