I paid 36k for it and got a pretty good deal on my trade
Use the money you saved and get PPF put on it. I'm having mine done the first week of February. Tried level 9h ceramic to see if it helped any and it doesn't so just going to wrap the entire car. The black 18 I traded in for the 19 had the entire front clip and hood look like it was peppered with tiny grains of sand especially the chin spoiler section. Your car is beautiful btw

You do not own a black car, it owns you!!!!!
It's worse than that. We now have 3 black cars, I have a 2012 F350 Quad cab in black, we just bought my wife a new 2019 Escape last weekend in Black and my car. Good thing I like to detail my cars as a stress relief.


Nice. The MY18+ GT with the A10 / PP is just fantastic, add in the 401a and you get an incredibly well rounded performance convertible. Sounds like it wasn't an Active Exhaust car, but you're getting things sorted out with an aftermarket setup (stock is just a bit too subdued).
It's been 75 degrees this past week around here, but a cold front did push through and it's a chilly 50 or so :D
OK, THAT was just cruel. :wink:

... and then karma bit my ass and now it's actually cold, er, well, you know "Florida cold".

I meant to mention, for these convertibles, a SmartTOP module (~$250) makes top operation way better. When I had my '16, for like 3 years I thought about - and put off - buying one. After I got my '19, I scored one in the first few months, and I gotta tell you, it's __so__ much better - in fact, when I was cross shopping a ZL1 convertible, one of the big "pros" was the top operation, specifically one-touch and operation-at-speed, which that module adds. There's a whole thread on it over in the convertibles area :)

I love black cars but I swore them off for many, many, years. Things have changed. With nanocoating now and advanced cleaning methods my last two cars have been black and it is really easy to keep them clean. In the summer get a california duster for the pollen. Takes maybe 5 mins or less to wipe the car down every couple days.

The nanocoating is key. It really helps keep black looking good. It's still a little more maintenance than other colors, but it's not nearly as bad as people think it is anymore.

Which coating do you like?

Grats on the vert! You will love the combo!

I swapped in winter tires after a November cold snap in East TN...and it hasn't been cold enough to matter since. I find a couple of days each month to take the top down...but I can't wait until spring!

On spoiler, pretty much everything works...you just may hit the antenna when you open the lid.

Your car is gorgeous!

I already ordered the MRB H-pipe and the Magnaflow Competition axle back from CJ Pony. My next ride will be to the exhaust shop :giggle:
Thanks for choosing Magnaflow for your new ride, Bigfoot! We would love to hear your thoughts once it's all installed! :fistbump:
