You shouldn't have to wait 6 1/2 months like I did. Spring is coming. I am ready, this weekend will really suck.

You will make it ok until it starts getting close to build. It does go by pretty quick though.

Ok , I don't like the sound of that. Where did you order from? I ordered from Kerbeck so I don;t expect any problems.

I ordered last Saturday From Kerbeck. I have a TPW of 12/01/2014. I know what you mean about the winter. I live in Pt. Pleasant and was looking forward to getting in some driving. We shall see I guess.

It all depends on the roof.

What do you mean. Whatever roof comes on the car as standard I will get. I didn't do any special option for that. I was hoping it was body colored (gray) but I'm not sure.

The standard body colored roof has been 35% constrained for a while.

Don't ask me how I know.

Chris you made the right choice my man! I too can't wait to own one, but I can't pull the trigger just yet. I love this new vette.
