Default My rapid blue Z just got delivered

Found it on the lot, bought it and in less than 2 weeks it’s now in my garage. As everyone says, pictures don’t do this color justice. Time to change my avatar.

That's about as good as it gets for an offl-lot pickup. Well done!

It's a 3LZ with only 2 options, color and front lift. The only other thing I wish it had was black exhaust. 5K over msrp, I could live with that.

Naw, there is plenty of room, it's just the angle.

You can always add the stealth trim later if you want it. 5k over MSRP is a bit high for me--but it's all relative. If it's a 3LZ HTC, that's a far smaller % than if it was a 1LZ coupe.

Nice! My exact spec so really cool to see pictures. Now if I could only get past 3000 so they actually build it 😆

Don't let that shovel on the wall fall off and hit the car!
