Congrats - where in Jersey are you? I wonder how obsidian black looks when it's been egged? :p

Honestly, I saw that color at the dealer, and it's a great color. It's too bad that you have to be so close to really appreciate it.

Let me know how the tinting goes, and post pics when it's done, if possible. Get that drifting problem corrected (if it's not the tire pressure) sooner rather than later by the dealer - they're very nice when they know that it's still too soon for you to have sent in the all-important survey. Enjoy the car - the miles add up quickly.

Congratulations on your car! Obsidian is nice, but I got tired of black. Where did you get your car and where are you getting the tint done?

Oh...and welcome to the forum.

Many roads are designed to be tilted to the driver's "right" side in order to allow for rain water to flow off the road. Smaller two lane roads usually peak in the middle and tilt down to either side (hence the feeling it is always tilted down to the 'right' when you drive on it).

So, the feeling the car is leaning to the 'right' might just be your getting used to how this car feels. This is will be more noticable in a car with more sensitive steering. Try it in a parking lot or wait a day or two and see how it feels.

I've noticed this occassionaly when I drive a rental or other car I'm not familiar with.

Congratulations, Dave. My car was delivered with tire pressures ranging from 6 to 14 psi over the recommended pressures. Also, I found the C7 equiped car is more sensitive to the road crown than the first car I had which had the 16" wheels.
