Hi, my car arrived safe and sound from Plano texas to Alabama! yay!
I drive it last night for the first time and LOVE pretty much everything but i have a couple of questions.
I notice my driver side window indexes but not the passenger, is that normal?
on my C6, both do it so i'm not sure about this one. I did try to read through my owners manual but it's overwhelming to read all that stuff in a day...:crazyeyes
Also, noticed when i lifted engine cover, oil dip stick is located way in the back, ....um, how to you get in there to pull and check the oil?? that looked complicated.:shrug:
What a difference sport mode made!!!-eek- wow! Drove to my destination (40miles) without sport button on and got 29 miles to the gal, came back from the destination with sport mode on and MPG dropped to 23 i think it said. You can definitely feel and hear all of the "sport" mode goodies doing what they're supposed to.
Audio sounds quite nice i thought....my ipod didn't fit the plug in glovebox...it must only work with certain ipods.
Was surprised to see that XM worked since in my vette, it only worked for a year (free) then i had to pay after that. I wonder if this one is good for only a certain amount of time?
Only negative comment is visibility out the tiny back window... :-/
Heated seats are luke warm, not near as warm as i was hoping they'd be but it works.
this car is very responsive, amazing handling and quite comfortable...i am very pleased.
:nanner2:
Anyone know what i can do about "license plate bracket holes" in the front where the dealer had their plate mounted?? i was horrified to see that they drilled through the car in 5 places to mount this big ugly bracket for their plate...OMG are you kidding me????-eek-:facepalm it's awful looking, thinking of getting the black wrap package done just to hide some of those ugly holes...holy cow...
Aspen white is AWESOME! it's bright, cool like snow...the Venom Red is deep blood red and stunning ....luv it!:up:
