Luv your ride, I'm ordering the Identical specs, also adding exhaust NPP option. I'm a little unsure about the M6, never thought I would ever consider an Auto but that Paddle shift has me wondering? Did you drive the Paddle shift? Any thoughts?Also, I was going to do an exchange and get these wheels Chromed $895, I think they look awesome (chrome only). What do you think? Pics #1 and #2 can be enlarged. I think you'll like the car color also ;-)

08 Vette Review
We’ll I’ve been driving it for 5 days now, not that you’ll care but here’s what I like about the 08 Vette.
EVERYTHING!
The fit and finish are prefect.
The ride settings are great.
The interior is nice. ( Not Plastic and rubber) Leather and Carbon fiber.
The balance of the car is good.
The tranny is smooth with short throws.
The engine has good power stock.
The engine has lots of potential. I’ll be getting into that in a big way this coming spring.
I’m very happy with my purchase.

An excellent choice. I just got mine as well, and I love it.

I was in a dealer about a week ago, they had a vert JSB on the floor. I will say the color does look better in person than in pictures. And those are chrome wheels, but they are the older design. The new design only comes in polished not chrome. I hope that changes by the time I go to order my vert.

So far it has not thrown a code. It's been a week.
NFS: I gave up on the GT 500 after I drove the C6.
