2022 C7 of the Year Finalist - Unmodified
2015 C3 of Year Finalist

Default She was delivered today

14, Z51, 3LT, Torch red, adrenaline red, NPP, Carbon Flash mirrors & Spoiler. Already ordered Carbon flash stinger from GM Parts Wholesale Direct...1558 miles on her....

Couldn't get her down to my detached garage because of the snow, hopefully in a day or two she'll be beside the 60th...Sold the little 68 Mustang to make room for her. We're all Bowties now

Man just turning her around to pull in the garage with 30 degree temps the ABS was acting up...she's definitely a warm weather girl...

A big thanks to Freddy of Dayton Corvette Club for checking her out for me...

Hey.......we got to see the tail-end of that Blue convertible!

I usually don't go for the new-fangled Vettes, but that Red one is sharp.

What a loverly colour, great choice for your C7.

Am a big fan of the new C7 shape, not so much the C6 through C4 but the C7 just seems to be a big step forward in styling with enough hints back to past vettes.

I know many don't like the C7 but I think its the big advancement that was long overdue.

The C4 - C6 had technology advances but as far as body it did not deviate enough with each revision, while all around the market was changing. They were safe changes.

Anyway off my soap box, enjoy your new toy, absolutely beautiful.

It's all good. It's a corvette and you included the C3 in a picture. Nice looking garage. The C7 is an awesome car.

Good luck with your new C7. That's a really hot color combination. I love the red with the black roof and wheels.

Great looking vette. I know I would be tickled with it. That 1588 miles would be doubled in no time if it were mine. Yep!!
