Finally! Delivery of my CGM Z51
I know that this won't be a car for everyone, given that it has the black wheels etc, but I'm very happy with it. I've been waiting forever given that I basically had selected every possible option on constraint. Car is 2LT, CGM, NPP, FAY, Clear coated top (sorry I don't recall the option code, I don't think it's C2Z??), MAG, NAV etc. I think the car/suspension is still settling. Living near San Franciso with all the dips and hills, I'm thinking I won't be able to get away with lowering it any.
Just put mile number 50 on it after not being able to drive at all yesterday, and taking it home in rush hour traffic on Friday evening for ~8 miles. I apologize in advance for the picture quality.
In the garage at the dealership - my jaw literally dropped when I first saw it:
Outside the dealership, cleaning it up and preparing for first drive:
Out for lunch today (I wasn't intentionally parking away from anyone, but the pic makes it look that way):
Top off, ready for this afternoon's drive:

Looks great! Check out your hood gap where it connects to the top of the bumper. It look a little too big in that first photo you took. Look back to the car beside yours.
When I picked mine up, the back bumper is not flush on one side to the quarter, and my headlights have defects in them and will need to be replaced. Also a nice scratch on the lower part of the front bumper that needs to be buffed out. I'm going in the spring back to the dealer to get it all done, right now mine is in storage so I'm envious that you're out there driving it!

Congrats and beautiful car. I'm on an airplane headed to pick up my own with very similar options :-). I'll be driving through SF on the way back to Seattle, I'll give you a wave if I see ya on the road.

Nothing wrong with this color combo and especially with the red callipers.
A nice looking Z51.

Congrats on your new beauty!
(from your 1st photo, looks like they backed right up to the wall!)
