Default Yellow Non Z-51 at Rydell Northridge, CA

Checked out the car for about an hour and it is the first time I have seen it in person. It was vin #600. The main sales guy Theo was very nice and told me the new owners of this car were not going to pick it up till later and it should be there through the weekend. They were not letting anyone sit in it because it was a sold car.

I was using the iPad to shoot these couple of photos at about 7:00pm. I did meet another forum member there and it was really cool talking to somebody else about the C7. We both couldn't wipe the smiles off our faces. I know everybody else around me is probably sick of hearing about it.

HAHA! Yeah, I saw you there. I was the kid in the "Idiocracy" shirt.

BTW, did you feel the tires? Those things are STICKY! I wasn't expecting that.

I saw you there too. "I like money"

I noticed that the tread depth is pretty shallow and they will probably wear out quick, especially the first set.

I did notice a few other things. 1) the front air dam under the bumper is only 2.5 inches off the ground but is very flexible. 2) you can fist the rear wheel gap, I am going to drop mine in the first month after it settles. 3) This particular car had a very poor fitting left side body panels, but the right side was decent.

Nice photos, especially considering you were inside and probably had many angle and distance limitations. Thanks for posting.
