What are some of the little things?

Leingod · 04-18-2015, 01:51 PM

I pick up my 09 Z this Monday. The excitement is starting to set in and I want to be well versed on everything it can possibly do. What are some of the little things about the car that most people don't realize or look at until you own one? I know i'll be fixing the oil problem foremost since the track in an hr away from me and I'll be pulling the steering lock fuse in the dealership parking lot. haha.

I already know all the ladies will want to have the "le sexy" time with me and that it can hold a slurpee in the cup holder while going 80mph flat under semi around a canyon corner. But what else did you guys love for the small things after getting yours?

Leingod · 04-18-2015, 02:53 PM

Psht. Mines located in the glove box. I'll be to busy shifting to read that haahaha. I did want to ask Ken since I slightly stalked your profile. What wheels are you running? They look amazing.

Wouldn't be my first engine that has exploded. Evidently Cobalts don't like 256ET turbos at 17+ psi on a test tune. Lesson learned.
