Four weeks, build date to dealer Calgary

When I ordered the car, my dealer had offered the extended warranty and said no. When I picked up the car, they said they had a deal on the warranty I could not refuse. 84 months total warranty for $1,500 less a rebate of $700.00. That gives me 6 years @ 10,000km per year for $135 per year. No...

Some people drive it hard from the beginning, so it's subject to debate whether to break a car in or how long. I'm old school, and follow the pattern I've used that has worked for me over 30 some vehicles. Almost all manufacturers recommend a break-in period, largely for warranty purposes...

I would recommend Xpel over 3M, I have my appointment June 17. If want my contact I did get a good deal. I ordered the bumper, mirrors, full hood and front fenders to door. My friend highly recommended the place, but if your here the weekend of the 21st, we can meet and I will show you the...

I got most of my info direct from GM. When I talked to the salesman the info was always dated. Customer service said the unit was shipped and in Canada, dealer had it awaiting rail car assignment. GM told me it was at the Calgary rail yard, dealer said its a week or two away, then phoned the...

That's decent shipping turn around. My car was finished yesterday and is "Bayed" for shipping. So 2 more weeks of snow and it should be here for spring. Here's hoping you can break yours in by driving a whole bunch this coming week.

You must be so excited. Congrats. How long did it take to ship once it was produced?

My car is scheduled for build today. It would be a good way to break it in, but unlikely it will arrive in time. Maybe some other time.

I think anything subtle but relevant is OK. So many of the good ones are gone, so I won't get one until I find something that strikes a cord. My first choice is perfect but likely taken.

I'm from Okotoks. Not sure on tint yet, it does look good on the dark grey C7's. My first 3 purchases will be a new radar detector, 3M like film on hood/front, and a personalized plate. Any recommendations on 3M like products?

It looks like a number of us will have are cars about the same time. I have a tentative build for next week. Black, Black, Black and Black (Coupe, Interior, Wheels, Brakes) So I can find it in the snow.
