You cannot see out of anything nowadays. That’s why cars have 8000 cameras.

fhaze3 · 04-13-2018, 07:32 PM

Just came back from Dealer. I got some numbers and have scheduled a test drive for tomorrow. 2018 ZL1 1LE RED HOT with every box ticked (extra CF, PDR, NAV) 13 miles on it.

It's um..a little red.

They do seem to be hard to find though.

Anyone interested in my M5, i'll give you a good deal, and CPO til aug 19

? lol

I present the "perfect" sports car to you, I even made a 1LE version of it a few months back:

Good luck with your purchase...its a great car for the track but wouldn't be the choice of many as a daily.

well done and hilarious!

7:16 at the Ring (granted w/ the engineer who helped design the thing behind the wheel)
Boy-Racer looks and visibility issues or not, it performs!

For a guy with the name Never_Enough, that kind of sounds like a compromise.

Red is a great color for the 1LE. I ordered mine white and saw the red in person, big regret. I'm still going to reserve red for Ferrari exclusively.

The older I get the less I want to deal with bs like that. I say that yet I drive a lowered Miata.

What about waiting to see what the new GT500 is all about?

Life is not a waiting game. Take chances, do it now.

fhaze3 · 04-16-2018, 07:14 AM

Done deal, M5 has been replaced by a Red Hot ZL1 1LE. Thanks all for not talking me out of it

Nkc · 04-16-2018, 08:33 AM

congrats and let us know when you'll need a hip replaced lol.

Never_Enough · 04-16-2018, 08:43 AM

No pics? Fail

fhaze3 · 04-16-2018, 09:23 AM

Pics as requested..now I am off to SF for two weeks

She had 13 miles when we first met. Now there are 190. I made sure they didn't touch it with water

so no dealer installed swirls!

When I get back I am going to clay, ironx, and wax. Ive never had any kind of film applied or cquartz done to any car, but I think it might me the right thing to do here.

Also up is a spare set of factory rims with some different rubber. Maybe some PS4's, and leave the Goodyears for *legally* aggressive driving.

URBAN LEGEND · 04-16-2018, 09:56 AM

Oh. Nice. You will enjoy that car. Careful with the electronics. The car will step out if you are not in right setting/paying attention.

Also don’t forget no lift shift. NLS is awesome. Congrats.

The wing and dive planes may have been a tad much, but only a tad, but the stance and everything about it literally made me weak in the knees.

Now that the M5 is (mostly) paid off, and has been relegated to nice weekend only duty, I'm getting an itch to have a stupid fast 3 pedal pony car.

Please talk me out of it

If you're gonna track it get it but if you're on the roads only get the SS1le or GT350R probably more fun road cars.

EDIT: Oh you got it looks really badass congratulations, huge road presence but be careful its gonna be a cop magnet unlike the pretty tame looking M5.

KenB925 · 04-16-2018, 11:24 AM

Congrats! It looks like the 6th gen ZL1 got more then a couple of us.

Mandi90TT · 04-16-2018, 12:36 PM

Holy balls, was at the track this weekend (Pueblo Motorsports Park), and wow. I was more or less the fastest car in my run group (HPDE 3/4 with NASA), in my M4, with NT-01 tires, and a JB-4, except for the Camaro, which completely destroyed me!

Yes, yes, I know it's HPDE, not a race, but you can still tell who is faster, and despite everything I tried, I could not keep up with the ZL1, it was insanely fast. And I'm a pretty good driver, used to do time trials with NASA, before I decided to just do HPDEs, as that was more fun for me. Couldn't keep up with him in the straights, or the turns. Wow.

kprocivic · 04-16-2018, 08:33 PM

Well fuck it, nice pick up how do you like it?

espressoo · 04-16-2018, 09:02 PM

Great choice. The M5 is showing its age in comparison.
