One of the best combos for sure. Blade silver always looks great. Congrats!

You just convinced me that I like black wheels better, thanks I kinda figured I would. Also convinced me to keep the red stripes in the process (mine are messed up, and was thinking of going grey)

Thanks everyone else! I'm excited to say the least.

I bought mine used too, so I had no choice, but I do love the red stripe/black wheel combo!

Congrats!

As someone who just traded in a vehicle I loved on a Corvette and thought I would miss it... you're not going to miss the Caddy at all. You'll be too busy wishing you were in the vette to care about the old car.

You may miss the G8GXP and H3 though, but only when you don't want to ddrive the vette (rain, snow, 4 people, etc.)

Congrats on bringing home a beauty.

Mine is new, however since it was a 12 I got a hella deal, so I'm just lucky I loved this color combo.

Great car. You must have one huge car expense account. The three prior to the vette would put me in the poor house. Your right though... got to have a vette ( or 2 ).

The h3 / g8 combo was the worst. Mostly from the h3. Gas and insurance was insane.

Mostly, it rained the whole way back, and I was exhausted.
