Wife got her 8....

Went with a new one. Couldn't talk her into the Sport package only. She just had to have the leather seats. She is already complaining about sweaty butt and legs from the leather and it isn't even true summer here yet. Dealer said we got the "N" flash. Not sure how true it is though. He was more than aware of the problems with the flooding issues.

Red Auto
Grand Touring Package
Black/Red Leather
Appearance Package
Spoiler

Can't wait to get the dang thing broke in so I can play. It's def not going to out power my 96 Z28 that I had, but in the handling department it rules the Z28. May have to get me one later this year. Gotta drive the stick first to decide which I like better. I am sick of driving a manual. But..... Manuals are more fun especially since I like to steer the car with the rear at times. :D

Congrats to your wife. She sounds just like me with the complaints and whatnot ... but in my defense it IS 91º out today and that's just no fun in a skirt

Welcome. However, there is no "N" flash. The last flash was the "M". No offense but the dealer hasn't got a clue. That is pretty normal for dealers. Check with the service department next time it's in for service.

Congrats to your wife! Now go get yourself another one with the manual tranny so you don't have to fight with her to drive it.
