    Yeah he's had it for 5 months and it's been in the shop for a total of 35 days. Yes had engine ticks problems with the exhaust and new found oil leak and he even spun a drive shaft and those are rated at 700 hp to the wheels. He even had pcm problems where they had to give him a whole new pcm. Hes thinking about selling it back and getting a z28 when it comes out. And if they don't take it back were probably gonna go to court because this is getting ridiculous
