There's a white one in my neighborhood imagine for a second its our car with an even worse trans tune. Hard to imagine I know but its true. I believe it takes around 8 minutes to shift from first to second.

I've seen a few in my neck of the woods, they are few and far between though! Looks like that one got a little roughed up, bumper is scarred up a bit!

Yes, CXS's with the 4 fender ports (not the 3 ports which are also very common). Actually very common around my small town.

Salt? What is this salt you speak of?

I feel bad for your car I know all too well since I live in Syracuse. Fortunately, my Monte is sitting in heated storage and won't leave until all the damn salt has been washed away.

Side note: I can't believe how warm it is today! 52* on Jan 31st is just crazy talk

They never made a white Super. Only 4 colors were offered in its short production run. Silver (shown), Mocha, Red Jewel, & Black.

My trans seems to shift just fine, thank you! Yeah, it has a little torque management thrown in there but so do the other LS4-powered cars.

Oh, BTW. Good spot hazards! We are out there, we just tend to fly under the radar.
