Thanks! I personally prefer the stripes. They accentuates the body lines.

All those cars are great choices, but I would wait for the new design before getting a 1LE.

What sucks is it's no longer a numbers matching car. Not sure, but for a Z06 I think that might matter.

Anyone can upbadge a car. It doesn't really matter because frankly you can modify a Civic to be faster than a Hellcat, ZL1, or whatever. Just in this case I don't think it's a real Hellcat. I could...
