Default how many miles

Can not say mine ticks only because of my hearing.

1500 miles 6 weeks.

August road trip should add some.
Carlisle Pa, to Bowling Green to nothern Ky. To home in North West PA. back to NH. Should add 3000 plus.

Sorry I'm not bothered by adding miles bought all my vettes to drive 7k a year. From April thru October.

Nearing 1,200 miles in 3 weeks (actually 4 weeks but we were away on vacation), and yes, the typical ticking.

BTW, I'm expecting many more to eventually chime in from CA if they visit this forum. I was told CA would be getting 40 Cooksey's.

It seems that there are quite a few 427 Limited Edition owners on this forum. If you own a 427 Limited Edition and you want to be counted, what number do you have and where do you live?

Default Gotta Have One

I'm a 53 guy from the C1 Forum. I was at Bloomington last weekend and saw these cars as well as the regular Z06's. Rode from Indy to Chicago in a C5 Nassau Blue Convertible. I forgot just how nice it is to ride in a newer corvette.
These are next on my list, for sure. Awesome!!!!!!!!!

You must have been at the dealer with the Vette in the sky next to the freeway. They had 3 of them when I was buying mine. If its the same dealer they sold 1 before I bought mine. I think there could be more wiggle room if they still have any left.

I think about 3 to 4k off MSRP doing a little shopping.

097 from Huntington Beach Calif. Approx. 2000 miles. No ticking. Complete clutch assembly replaced due to chattering. Definitely a crowd stopper.

$79,900, out the door. (With Nav) Think sticker was around $85,945 or thereabouts??

Great car, had to get rid of a 50th AE to get wife approval. 2nd Best Corvette I have ever owned. (Nothing beats a midyear.)
