finally got it!!!!

what a sweet looking ride.(will post pics in the morn)
picked it up yesterday. put about 250 klicks on it already.lol
i wanted some easy miles on it before i tried out the "no lift shift" and launch controll.

this thing is sweet!!!
black looks great on these things.
gonna be hell to keep clean though.

so tonight i went out and tried out the goodies.
"no lift shift"... LOVE IT. took 2 times to get used to it.
at first it felt like patting your head and rubbing your stomach at the same time. but works like a charm and smooth as can be now!!!
i'm sorry to report that the launch controll blows ass.
i could have launched my focus st quicker and better than that.
but i kind of expected that.

so i have a quick question. does no lift shift work without being in competition mode?? cause i preffer to launch the car myself. way quicker times i'm sure.
i'm pretty sure it does, but wanted anouther opinion before.

thanks everyone.
it's midnight now and i feel like going out for a cruise.lol

man it looks good

forgot to mention.
yesterday when we were signing at the stealership.
the day before, gm launched a new bonus. so our salesman made sure we got it. a gas card good for 20 cents off a liter for 2500 liters!!! sweet!

now i'll be able to drve the z28 a little more too. this darn thing just doesn't stop giving.

except for the launch control.lol

Welcome to the HHR familia!
GREAT color choice and just a little touch up work every day will keep your baby sparkling!

You will find yourself taking LOTS of pix! I have a whole folder devoted to pix of my Blackie...this is my child!
