What springs did you get. I got the 1in all around linear. Wonder how they feel.
I went with the dual rate springs. I ended up about .75" lower all the way around.

A good friend of mine was an instructor for GM for many years. I asked about about break-in, oil, and the "tick". He said the manufacture's specs should be followed, meaning don't change that oil till the book says so. The semi-synthetic mix is there for a reason, and he thinks one should use it till around 10,000 miles before switching to synthetic.

Thanks man... I love the black accent package with the carbon fiber accents and alacantara seats! Great package for the price IMO.
Like that combo. I got 401a premium pp1 pack. I wish they let you get the pp1 and blackout but they dont witch I think is stupid.

I broke mine in according to the manual so. Last night was the first time I got to actually accelerate aggressively to get around traffic. My impression is the car did not "feel fast" but I got around traffic quickly in 4th gear and was going "too fast" fairly quickly. Today I had to merge into traffic and got into 3rd gear before giving it gas to catch up to traffic. Again it didn't throw me in the seat and didn't "feel fast" but it did catch up soon enough. My wife was looking at her phone and never even looked up.
If you want the car to “feel fast” you should have been in 2nd gear.

Take off at WOT from a stop in drag mode and let shift through the first 3 gears and see if she looks up from her phone. :clap:

I have a 2018 with 3700 miles. Second batch build. I have a rattle, it's annoying, but the car runs amazingly well. There is no correlation currently between engine rattle and engine failure. That may change in the future, but for now I am not scared.
