Agent☣Orange II
Agent☣Orange
II
Well hell, it's been a while since I update the Agent☣Orange I thread. Turns out, my ride was fully "warranty blocked" from GM about three weeks after leaving the factory. Tried to delve into it and best guess was a hurricane condition at the dealer lot turned my ride into scrap even though I paid full retail at CarMax because it wasn't recorded on CarFax. That's a heads up to anyone doing business with them to do your diligence before signing anything...something I learned the hard way.
Anyway, offloaded the scrap Vette and letting the lawyers handle it but I managed to convert on fourth down to a beautiful 2012 Grand Sport four months ago and neglected to follow up here, well honestly I was just cautious for the other shoe to drop just in case I made another mistake. Nevertheless, on my path to my C7 Z06 in a few years, I'm currently piloting this beautiful beast that I took some picts of today.
It is a 2012 Corvette Grand Sport with Z16 suspension, dry sump oil in Inferno Orange compared to Atomic Orange before. Basically, if you were to take an ordinary C6 and add a bunch of mods like the Z-51 suspension, huge-ass brakes and tires, performance gear ratios, dry sump oil system, flared fenders and the like, you'd end up with a Grand Sport. Cheaper to buy it this way than to piecemeal it together.
So, all the parts I was amassing before still apply and since it's still orange, my screen name is still valid so here goes so picts:

All for now. Plans include 1" drop, tinted windows, stereoeeoh install, shift kit, LED lighting, F1-style rear lower lighting that I'm fabricating, headers, cam and a bunch of other stuff I'll create a separate thread for.

We just purchased my wife a new to us car. I almost went to carmax myself but I read a bunch of bad reviews about their shady warranty department and was always confused about how a remaining manufacture warranty would not be covered on a car that is still within year and millage warranty I guess your expierence is one of the reasions as to how it would not be covered. We instead went to a ford dealership and bought her a ford certified preowned vehicle and its warranty goes even longer than buying new . It was alittle bit more than carmax prices but piece of mind and knowing when we pay the car off in 4 years its still gonna have some warranty on it .

Nice try but that's not your car.

He just said needs Hooter's girls, not that I specifically needed them. They can really scratch the hood IMO, especially the more substantial ones. Besides, unless they're wearing waxed shorts and micro-fibre tops, I don't really want them on my car.

That sucks about your first C6 but you upgraded so its not all bad! Who DOESN'T love vettes? I have been wanting one for a while and C5's just keep getting more affordable, C5Z06 will be soon enough for my cheap self too! Look forward to the mods!! :drinkto:
