Choosing color almost caused me to be committed. Real difficult, as each color really changes the car. So, I went with Blk,Z51, Kalahari, 3lt, auto
NPP, MSRC and upper trim package. Only driven 150 miles, but, this car is
Fantastic!

For a second, I thought you were talking about a beautiful woman. All joking aside, I asked my dealer the same thing. Just wash her, no shine, no wax. I will do it all myself at home when I feel she is ready.

Black is the best on sports cars IMO, but requires a hardcore motivation to keep clean.

Wondering if the dealer kind of chuckled when you said that. My dealership did a good job of washing it, and didn't screw up the paint. I was nervous they might screw it up.

After the first clay-polish-seal how often do you repeat afterwards?

My C7 will be yellow.

These might sound like silly questions, I've just never had a car that I cared so much to keep detailed so I've never learned about any of this stuff.
