Took Delivery NRB/Brownstone 3LT
I received a call at 12pm yesterday from my dealer telling me that he received his truck and my C7 was not on it. I was disappointed to say the least. About 3pm, I am driving down the road and I get a text telling me that he received another truck load and he thinks mine may be on the truck. I was literally two minutes away so I made a U-turn and headed over. I got there just in time to see them take her off of the truck. WHAT A SITE. I didn't have time to go far yesterday so the detailed driving review will have to wait until this weekend. I was only able to get a couple of pictures. More to come later in the day. I will say the car is even more stunning in person. It draws attention everywhere. I stopped by the clubhouse in my neighborhood to get my gate barcode, and no fewer than 8 people surrounded the car to take pictures. Brian75 - great seeing you there man. Keep in touch.
FYI: NRB, Brownstone 3LT, Black Wheels, Yellow Calipers, MSRC, NPP

Some initial impressions:
I agree with what some others have posted about the interior gauges being too dim at night. When I drove home it was darker than I prefer.
The secret screen is cool, great storage.
Pandora will only work with your iPhone connected by USB? WTF - even my Infiniti allowed me to stream via Bluetooth.
Screen options are insane - you can make it look any way you want.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the NPP. The exhaust note is amazing.
Brownstone; I was hesitant about this color due to the way it looked in pictures. They do it NO JUSTICE. The color screams class. Everyone at the dealership was coming up asking what color I had.
More to come

Congrats.
Man, I really like NRB. The black wheels on it look good too.

I wonder if the gauge cluster brightness adjustment range was signed off by a twenty something year old engineer, whose low light vision is four times that of a typical aging boomer buyer !?

Macguy is right. It should work. I just used mine. Do this:
1) Sync your phone with the unit.
2) Initiate Pandora on both the phone and the car.
3) Make sure that the bluetooth button on the phone on the bottom right is switched to your car stereo.
4) Make sure that the music is playing on the app (you can see the seconds going on your phone as the song plays).
5) Make sure that the stereo screen is showing the "pause" button", which means that music is playing.
6) Make sure that the volume is up (as silly as this may be
)
Enjoy!
