^^^ I haven't had the opportunity to roll up on the LC from the rear. I wonder how many people find the tail lights intriguing.

There is a setting that allows the spoiler to be left raised all the time.

Yes I like the active spoiler but I like the look of it being raised to not raised, so I leave it raised all the time.

Saw this new Nori Green LC500 getting a front-end PPF when I took mine in to do my A-pillars and quarter panels today. With a shout-out to the good folks at Extreme Colors!

I will weld metal spikes to it, so he gets comfortable while seated.

I was driving north on I-85 just north of Atlanta this afternoon and this beauty pulled in front of me. Later I pulled alongside and waved, but his windows were tinted and I don't know if he saw me or waved back.

I see another like this one (white/toasted caramel/tan top) every time I work out at Lifetime Fitness in Cary, NC. Although my '23 cloudburst gray/toasted caramel/black top cabrio stands out a bit more (IMHO), I'm always thrilled to see another example in the wild. (Unlike seeing the multitude of C8 Corvettes, which seem to be more plentiful in our small town than anything else other than those damn Tesla's ).

Quoting myself as I was out on my daily walk yesterday and found out that this red coupe lives literally behind me and 2 houses over! Funny as this guy drives a Ford Raptor as a DD and told me the LC is the first non-truck vehicle he has ever owned. He likes it but is thinking of moving to a 911.

I go through phases with mine. Sometimes I leave it permanently up for weeks at a time and sometimes I just change it back to the automatic settings.

There are so many C8's in my area. I've grown to dislike them due to the general attitude of most owners. These guys act like they're driving a damn Bugatti. Don't get me wrong—the car is extremely fast and offers great value for the money. However, it's relatively affordable and not particularly rare.
