    Re: My new ride...

    nice ! I bought a new 2018 last year. same car same color. I started out by looking at used cars, but couldn't find anything clean enough. the one car that may have appealed to me had tinted windows. my point being is that I hated the tinted windows. It looks great from the outside but I didn't like being in the car. I will say this car was in Connecticut & they allow you to run darker tint than NY. almost twice as dark, if you can believe it. So don't go to crazy with the tint until you figure out how dark you want it. I got the 6 speed with 3.73 gears and it's fun to drive. good luck with your ride & enjoy.

    My new ride...

    Appreciate the compliments everyone.

    The wheels are gloss black wrapped in Nitto NT555 G2’s, 285/35

    I may put a whipple supercharger on it, but that wouldn’t be for a while.

    Traded in my ‘16 Camaro SS for this bad boy.

    From what I understand, they only offer the 3.55 gears in 2019, even with the performance pack.

    As far as LSP, I’m still debating. I currently have Tech582 ceramic spray on it.

    How do you like that ceramic spray? I have been thinking about picking some up.

    I like it a lot. Very slick. Does not streak. Nice gloss. I wouldn’t buy it for durability, however.

    Great looking car! Congrats!

    Does it have either of the performance packages? I recently test drove a GT with the Performance Pack 1 and the handling was really good. It wasn't harsh or jarring, yet stuck through turns like it was glued to the road.

    Nope, just the base suspension. Lowered it with Steeda sport springs.

    Great color... my Escape was that color and it was SO easy to maintain. Probably the easiest care color I've owned to date.

    Enjoy the car!

    Looking good. Nice stance with the springs and 19" wheels.
