Thanks! Has the ride or engine performance changed with more mileage?

I haven't noticed any change in engine performance or ride. I did just get new springs and struts up front, but even before those were installed, I didn't notice any difference.
I don't beat on it since it is my daily driver, but I do drive aggressively and push it in the corners.
My plan was to install new springs and struts all around after the warranty expired, but that will probably be delayed since they are new up front.

But my Motor Trend came last night and in their picking their car of the year (congrats GM on the Chevy Bolt!) they said it was fun on a track but the car is brutal on everyday roads do to the hard and BOUNCY suspension. Normal suspensions can get hard enough here in 10 below, I am not sure ones that start that way are a comfortable daily. Can you comment on that Cosmos from your stint?

Not around here. All are $5k ADM. I pissed off a salesperson at one stealer and the GM at another when I laughed in their faces concerning the 5k extra. I told the GM they should stock lube at the sales desk so it would be easier when they f you. They had the car in the exact color and options I wanted too. I have never paid sticker for anything and offered sticker. To them it was like I offered 20k.

They are fun to drive.
Your videos are getting much better, with more concise thoughts and less cuts in the video. Keep it up!

I am surprised people are not willing to travel. I will fly anywhere in the country for the best deal and drive it home.

Problem with going too far from home is, you need to bring the wife. And dealers are great at pitting man vs woman. UGH! I hate that.
After two or three dealers, she speak: "Get the damn car and get on with the weekend, already. I'm busy."
