To me honestly the ZL1 has way more character. When I see a CTS V coupe it just looks to plain. While it's a bad ass car without a doubt, it just lacks personality in my opinion.

I think the opposite. I see Camaros all the time, but the CTS coupe is something I rarely see.

To each their own I guess.

On a side note, I just got back from watching Furious 7. I honestly hope that they end the franchise there. They ended the movie a great way and it will not be the same without Paul walker.

Can't wait to see the movie, worth it then I take it?

Different side note: removed the rear bowtie to re-do the plastidip. Didn't realize I would struggle to remove it for about an hour. Had to respray it though and it was just about dry and way better looking and it started to rain! Wtf weather! Gotta wait till the morning to out it back on. Covered the two holes though thankfully so no rain gets in.

I actually don't care for the wagon either lol. I only like the CTS-V Sedan. As for Furious 7, I believe it is well worth it. I am a big fan of the series as a whole and it was overall a good fun movie to watch. The end will getcha if you have any attachment to the actual series, Paul walker or gear heads in general.

Vin Deseil said on Jimmy Kennel live that they plan on heading to NYC for the 8th. And he also mentioned that the secret agent dude in this movie will be a basis for 8. I really really hope not honestly, it will not be the same without Paul.

has anyone ordered new swaybars from a oem parts site? A member got a quote for shipping ZL1 swaybars to me and it would have cost $108 to ship them. There's gotta be a better way/cheaper way to ship swaybars...

Agreed, not a fan of the coupe but that Wagon! And with a widebody kit looks amazing.



But it's very pricy to say the least

So, I'm torn.

I have some long tubes and a muffler laying around for the SS. I can put them on and tune it, OR, save the $1250 and just do my tips and my NPP diffuser with the Borla I have and leave the car alone as it gets driven a LOT seeing my girl.

On the other hand...

I can go ahead and put 4.11s and a locker in my pickup truck, which honestly it needs a lot more than the car needs headers, and perhaps spring to have the transmission rebuilt and put a little converter in it....

And race my girl and Black Thunder. Heads up style
