Recently bought a 2011 PPV detective model with 594 miles ($18500). looking to learn a little from the other owners, maybe they can help answer some questions.

Yup, 9c3. It was never sold or used by a police agency, so I would assume it's overstock. Carfax only has 2 entries: the day it was manufactured and the day it was sold at pacnorwest auto auction. Dealer planned on buying this one himself, so he put on aftermarket honeycomb style racing wheels on and let me keep the steelies. Also, the dealer did a cat delete on the back two cats so it's got a good sound.

Warranties are based on time and miles from factory. All I have left from that is less than a year if power train. I got the dealer full coverage for 2400 though. Oh, it was a legit chevy dealer too, not some trailer on a parking lot style salesman

Welcome to the system! Nice deal on a 9C3 and nice find as well.

We've got a few subject matter experts on high horsepower here. The horsepower capacity is proportional to the size of the wallet, always remember that one. You going for a track car with your ride?

It was just an idea I was throwing around 8-) . Top priority now is to unlock the stereo. Thanks for the welcome!

It's expensive, I bought mine this way. It's the same supercharger as a G8. I think the kit was $7-8k, but refer to the people that did it themselves.
