I agree, SW more info/pics when you get a chance. No worries posting it on this thread or starting a new one.

Test drove this beast. Strange how refined/subdued the stock exhaust is. I was kind of expecting it to be more aggressive sounding with heavy throttle. Not sure if I like how quiet it is or not. Only slightly embarrassed to admit I stalled it on first launch. That'll never happen again. It took so much concentration driving it (having not driven a stick in 10+ years) that I couldn't even carry on a conversation with the guy for the first 5 min haha

I met the guy at the Cadillac dealership to test drive it as he was bringing it in for an oil change. They had it up on a lift so I could inspect the underside of the car. Everything looked good but the front rotors caught my eye. There was some discoloration about half way out on the rotor as well as what looked to me like very fine cracks in the surface. I asked the tech inspector and they hadn't really noticed it, so they looked closer and told me it was nothing to worry about. The owner told me he did have the car out to one track day for some kind of driving school. Looks to me like a lot of heat got into them. Is this anything I should be concerned with or normal?

Thanks y'all!
Dave

PS sorry if there are any issues with the photos I post, still learning this stuff
