[QUOTE="Neils, post: 254942, member: 7582"] Traffic cone, too funny, we have LOTS of those on our terrible roads here in Mtl, so I hear you !! Without taking away from the pastel color chat, I do agree on the 2LT point. My initial plan was to purchase an affordable C8, so 1LT coupe, but then the HTC came out and I fell in love, so another $10K to spend. Then I compared 1LT to 2LT, so many creature comforts in the 2LT, the biggest ones for me is sound system, cooling seats and HUD in that order. I am an audiophile, and love my music, and while I will enjoy the engine and exhaust sound, I also want to enjoy some louder music. Having come from a car audio background decades ago, it's not fun to have to rip off factory door and dash panels to swap out speakers, pass new power cables to allow the install of higher performance amplifiers, and securing those components in an available space. My wife has lived thru those years with me, so once she found out that the better system was in the 2LT, she insisted for me to spend the extra $10K to avoid tearing a brand new car apart to get better sound. And of course the technology has come a LONG way since the initial days of crappy Bose systems from the 90's and early 2000's.
