The dealer mark-up on Shelbys is ridiculous, and the dealer mark-down on the C7 is also ridiculous! I don't know why anyone would buy a Shelby over a C7, based on value or bang/buck.

I'm a...

I (personally) don't really understand the Grand Sport. It lacks the budget pricing of the base Stingray or Z51, while also lacking the power of the supercharged LT4.

For the $$, you're easily...

You put the car in track mode, then two slow clicks of the center button to get into 'Competition Mode'. While in Competition Mode you can drive on the track w/ limited traction control without it...

When it rattles, "exercise" your vent (flip it up down and right to left, as quickly as you can, several times) and see if it goes away. There is a lot of plastic in the C7, and sometimes these...

Not exactly. The 1LT has Bluetooth, and if you buy a 2016+, it has Apple CarPlay and Android Auto that can be used for navigation.

The Android Auto on your Android smart phone will display a full...

It seems like subpar service to me. Usually when we drop off our other cars (Jeep or Ford) they do a "courtesy wash" with any service appointment.

Now that being said, you take your chances if...

I'm not saying it doesn't help performance, but I don't think it can be blamed as the definitive reason why you're losing traction. What are the details of your traction loss? While applying...

How is mag ride going to help with wheelspin?

Less horsepower, a stickier road surface, improved driver input, reduced weight, and better tires would do the most to help in my opinion. I'm...

I remember seeing it as a kid...still waiting and not holding my breath. The reality is...the current C7 is much cooler than any Stingray I could have imagined back then. The magazines have been...

Hmmmm. Let me know if you find out that it is applicable to the 2016 model. That's what mine is, but I was told it was two oil changes (for the base model) or three for the Z51/Z06.

I think they changed it for 2016. Two oil changes on the base model, and three for the Z51 and Z06 because they have the additional 500 mile oil change.

Don't rev it above (I think) 3500 RPM until the 500 mile mark. When you hit 500 miles the graphic on the sport dash display will unlock and the redline will go to 6500 RPM. It'll get "angry" with...

Congratulations on the car!! If you're driving back from Oregon, did you arrange to get the 500 mile oil change on your way back?

Do they have the original exhaust? I mean, is it an option to re-install it if you don't like the Borla? That seems like a great deal for a 3LT Z51 if it checks out clean.

I ended up going with...

I personally think new is a better deal. Regardless of mileage, you ate up one or two years of the 3 year bumper to bumper warranty by buying used, and the 2016 comes with a bunch of features that...

Didn't they implement a 'fix' for the overheating A8 transmissions with the 2016 model year?
