Yes I got the magride package that comes with the summer tires. How much does it cost the essential service plan?

DM @LeDon for a quote. Mine was around 2600 I think, it includes all the regularly scheduled maintenance like oil changes and dct fluid replacements etc.

This is the package that I took with Mag Ride

ZER PERFORMANCE SUSPENSION WITH MAGNETIC SELECTIVE RIDE CONTROL™
  • Damping system that reads the road every millisecond and adapts in as little as 10-15 milliseconds
  • Innovative suspension fluid contains metal particles that align and become rigid in an instant, giving you the confidence and control to push harder while staying planted
  • Includes Performance Traction Management
  • Adjustable with Driver Mode Selector
  • May require additional optional equipment
MICHELIN® PILOT® SPORT 4S 275/30ZR20 FRONT AND 345/25ZR21 REAR, HIGH PERFORMANCE, RUN-FLAT SUMMER-ONLY TIRES
  • Do not use summer-only tires in winter conditions, as it would adversely affect vehicle safety, performance and durability. Use only GM-approved tire and wheel combinations. Unapproved combinations may change the vehicle's performance characteristics. For important tire and wheel information, see your dealer.
  • May require additional optional equipment
When I bought the C8 in 2020, it comes with two complimentary oil change and I only have to pay for the oil change for the third & forth year but the oil change cost around 300$ at the dealer. I don't know if GM still give the two complimentary oil change for 2024 C8? I find that 4 oil changes + fluid replacements for 2600$ costs more than the regular maintenance fee.

Thanks!

Might want to browse through an owners manual that covers the Eray. Might give you a better idea of maintenance differences.
 
Can someone tells me if there's a big difference driving an all season performance tires vs summer performance tires on an AWD car?
Is it safe to drive summer tires in early spring and late fall season?
I imagine that I will have to change to winter tires if I want to drive it during our canadian winter...
Thanks!

The second DCT filter change is $800. 2 oil changes are $600. The DCT fluid change every 3 years is likely around $800 also. Not to mention air filter, cabin air filter. At the very least it's what it will cost you without it. I'd also point out that shop costs only go up.

Summer performance tires should only be driven when temperatures are 7C or higher. RWD or AWD will do nothing to the actual rubber compound of the tire, which is the determining factor on tire selection. AWD may get you moving faster but will do nothing to help you stop or steer.
Others will have different opinions about all season performance tires, but my opinion is that they should be changed to winter tires once the temperature drops. All seasons are really only 3 season tires.
 
Anecdotally, I have an AWD performance sedan which was fitted with summer performance tires and at the first hint of a snowfall, literally a few flakes on the ground, I could not get up my driveway (about a 1% incline) without all four wheels spinning. Switched to winters and it’s night and day. I know, not the question you were asking, but I suspect that if I was driving around I would have spun out somewhere. My other vehicles with AWD and all season tires, no problems with a bit of snow. But I switch all my cars to winters.
 
Finally my dealer told me this week that they received my E-Ray and I plan to pick it up this Tuesday morning but I have difficulty to decide for the warranty extension & GM essential service plan.
I don't know how long that I will keep the E-Ray. Usually, I keep my cars for 3-4 years max. I plan to drive the E-Ray from early spring to late autumn. I will drive probably between 8000-10000 km/year.
I may change for the Zora or C9 E-Ray depending on the exterior aesthetics + AWD capability. I won't track and I think 1200 HP is too much on legal street limits.
My dealer wants to sell me the warranty extension + service plan. So how long should I buy those options for? Will it matter when I will sale the E-Ray in the future?
The dealer told me that the E-Ray comes with two complimentary oil changes and from my past experience with my Stingray, I just do oil change yearly. How much should I expect to pay for those options 4 vs 5 years?
Thanks!

I took the extended warranty on mine.
I figured with all the new stuff required to create an E-Ray, it's a wise choice.
Hopefully, it will prove to be a waste of money.

No point having an extended warranty if you’re not keeping the car beyond GM’s regular warranty. I doubt it will impact resale value.

Thanks for sending Ian. I will check and get back to you.

Scott, the dealer told me that I have to decide for the plans before the car delivery. If not, the price will increase later on. Usually, how long can we wait to buy the protection plans without affecting the initial quote?
Thanks!

Ian can you DM me your VIN number and contact information. I have heard back from our CCF warranty sponsor this morning and he would like this to follow up with you. He did say his prices are lower and can save you money BTW.
Thanks
Scott
 
I was told that there is no Service Plan for the ERAY and Z06 only for the Stingray. Hummmm
