      What an amazing car! Wife and I bought a bone stock '13 gs 3LT with manual trans with 14,500 miles on the clock. Did a 10.5 qt oil change in it, pretty wild it has 2 drain plugs! Have to be super careful not to hit front of car on a curb in parking lots!

    Wow... that's a gorgeous car, man... congrats! Inferno Orange is an awesome color - and I love the way those blue calipers pop! Nice! I own a '12 GS (manual/dry sump) in your second choice color... Supersonic Blue - also with the Competition Grey wheels. I've had mine a little over a year and it's still stock - and still a blast! Looking forward to following along to see what else you do with this one. Enjoy!

    Nice GS! I own a 2013 Inferno Orange 6 spd GS coupe and watched this vid to see how the blue calipers looked lol (I've been considering getting them). If you ever decide to change that spoiler , check out Katech carbon spoiler. They made mine to order and it's 100% real carbon fiber. The carbon weave looks incredible, and the shape is more aggressive, but not overly aggressive. Plus the carbon weave has a gray-ish hue that would match the Competition Gray rims nicely.

Didn't go for the manual because I have bum knees and I also know what it takes to change the clutch! Would love to know where you got that "mild 2 wild" remote holder for your ashtray, please let me know. Peace

    Congrats! I just bought a 2012 6 speed Inferno Orange Grand Sport a few weeks back. NPP exhaust. Black interior with same rims but in chrome. Same story been looking for years for either this color or carlisle blue. Also have the similar zr1 aero kit. Been going back and forth on painting my calipers and what color. This helps some thanks. My only complaints about the car is I hate how red my car looks in low light. It looks like 2 totally different cars in direct light vs low light. I'm currently trying different polishes and waxes to see if I can bring the orange & metallic out more before I ceramic coat it. Also, I made my own remote relay "mild 2 wild" to open and close my exhaust. It's still too quiet for me. It for sure needs long tunes and x-pipe.

    In the market for a black on black GS. The only other "must have" is I prefer completely stock. Higher miles (up to 100K ish) is okay, I'd consider a well repaired and fairly priced rebuilt title car. Nationwide search. I'll fly out and drive home or arrange delivery. If anyone knows of anything, let me know!

    • @dksgarage6061
      @dksgarage6061  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      6mo ago $30-35k depending on miles ...but the lack of Used vehicles on the market and the C8 slow production have cause prices to soar. Honestly I wouldn't think about selling this one cause I couldn't replace it at the moment. Its value is roughly $45k with these options and miles today 5/22/2021
