I went back. Haven't owned a black car since 2006, and that's just FINE with me....

Congrats on the purchase Mike! I like the GT4 a lot better than the 911 (except you'll still be driving it around backwards all the time )

If you thought cases of Windex were hard to keep in stock, just wait until you find out how fast you go through California dusters and detailing spray....

I'm waiting a couple more years to see if the rumors about GM swapping the 6.2 liter pushrod engine for a a 550hp 5.5 liter flat plane engine in the 2023 C8 are true.. If they are, then that just might be my next "guilty-pleasure"...

But it won't be black, for sure.

Indeed. I wanted the white but it was going to be another 6-9 months wait. By then I would’ve been going crazy. This car has sort of a gangster look.....black wheels, black paint, black interior... I may have to move to Miami and buy an offshore racing boat or something in order to own this car...:-).

Kind of funny going from “everything polished aluminum” to black.

I do like this car a lot better than 911....It’s lighter, naturally aspirated, and more of a sports car.

Still won’t be able to keep up with the cobra gang.
