Default Well, I did it!

Drove up to Criswell and ordered a new C7 from Mike Furman.

2LT convertible, black over DSOM, black interior with the fake suede, Carbon Flash badges, Performance exhaust. Mike says I should should have it in about 6 weeks!

Unfortunately, that's about a week after I have some minor surgery. I may have to let my son drive it home.

"I may have to let my son drive it home. "

That's good, and that's funny, too.

Good luck on the surgery, of course.

Congrats! Very nice color combo!

I too ordered a C7 today. I ordered a Coupe Z51 Torch Red w/Jet Black, A8, MRC, PDR from Hendrick Chevy in NC. Hopefully mine will be ready as quickly as yours. I am doing R8C Museum Delivery. If mine were ready the weekend of 4/25, it would be absolutely awesome as 4/25 is my 40th Birthday and this car was a Birthday present to myself.

Thank you all. And yes, dealing with Mike was a pleasure.

Nice. My last 4 cars have been one shade of red or another, so I decided to do something different this time.

Happy (almost) birthday. Mine is April 18th. I am, however, well past 40.

Thanks again guys. I think the wait is going to be harder than the surgery.

My Father In Law also ordered a 2015 C7 Blade Silver 2LT Convertible from Mike Saturday morning.

Was such an easy transaction, I keep wondering if I forgot something.

Sat at 1100 at the local dealer, who is in the top 30 on the sales list, and they still couldn't tell me if the car would get picked up! He was #4 on the list according to them, so he may have never gotten it.
