Just picked up today: 2023 70th Anniversary Edition C8 Stingray with 6 km on it...
I missed driving my 2020 C8 HTC too much over the past year, which I sold too soon expecting I'd be driving the C8 Z06 by now, so this should tide me over:
Fairly loaded: 3LT (as required for the Anniversary Edition package); HTC; Z51; mag ride; front lift; high-wing; carbon fiber interior cluster; rocker extensions; full length dual satin black metallic racing stripes; black exhaust tips; splash guards; black tow hook; OEM indoor car cover; and battery protection package. The logo'd leather/suede tote bags that come with the Anniversary Edition package, look great!
I'm waiting for the black lug nuts that were supposed to be on the car, to come in. The black locking lugs are in the trunk and ready to go. I was fortunate enough to get the edge red calipers (originally standard with Anniversary Edition) before they went on constraint. I'd already purchased the all-weather OEM floor mats and the frunk/trunk tray set for the Z06, so those are now in the car. Now it's time to do a bunch of other things: PPF and ceramic, "permanent" red jacking pucks, matching suede to cover up the warning labels on the visors, grill covers (x4), touch-sensitive screen protector, custom clear plastic cover over the emergency release in the frunk...all of which I had on my 2020.
I'm also looking to swap out/replace my Michelin Pilot Sport 4S summer tires, with Michelin Pilot Sport all-season, so I can drive the car later into this Fall and starting early next Spring, on occasional snow when necessary. I have no room in my garage for yet another set of rims/tires and replacing the tires only, will be cheaper...although having the all-season for track use or launch control, isn't ideal.
I know I get 2 free oil/filter changes. I thought Canadians were now entitled to a free DCT filter change/ fluid top-up but my dealer said no; only in the States. Is that correct?
Anyone know if the 2023's get the "speed shape gift"? [aka, should I expect one in about 2 years, like my 2020? (lol)]
Finally, I'm looking forward once again to:
-finishing the break-in period at 805 km, when the fun really begins (I plan to get there before I park it);
-then in due course, attending the Ron Fellows driving school for what I assume will be the same GM subsidized US$1,000 rate...
