Nice, been trying to decide if I want a black spoiler or not as well…ZR1 or Ron Fellow…it's a toss up…somedays I want a black one, somedays I like the white….
Might just have my pop wrap it in black and see if I really like it…at least if for some reason I don't, it's an easy 1-2-3 back to white!

that looks sweet !! might go on my already started list of items to get .. lol
Hey what temp is too low that might crack the stock tires? I couldn't find a shipper that gave a decent price and offered the comfort my car or rims won't be damaged so I have booked my flight for april 11th to get my car and take a 3,000km drive home. great time to get to know my car and bond with the open road (taking my time)

I'm hesitant to post this and I don't want to alarm you but I had a close friend looking at a 2011 AW ZR1 in Alberta recently. He told me there was a warranty block on it and it wasn't listed in the registry? I DID NOT SEE THIS CAR BUT TOOK HIS INFORMATION AS TRUE! I just had a look at the registry and #308 isn't listed. Not saying it's the same car but I hope you did your homework.

NO GM warranty! Call your local GM dealer and ask for the sales manager and ask him to run the vin in their system (Global Report). (tell him you plan to have it serviced there) It will tell you all you need to know. Don't panic this may not be the same car but if it is you need to know this now.

There are some cars out there that have been used for driving schools and magazine test cars and some of these cars are sold with NO warranty. Spring Mountain driving school and some of the others will send these cars back to GM where they go to the auction and any GM dealer can bid on them. Usually the GM dealers are straight up with you and tell you about a warranty block etc. Sometimes these cars wind up at a Honda dealer or somewhere else and the dealer is unaware of things like this (or at least they say they are). There have been forum members stuck with these cars in the past so it can happen. Like I said, no need to panic but check the VIN at your local dealer.
