This happened over a year ago, after I bought the car. Fixed as good as new as you can see from the photos above.

Seriously though, I once had a 33ft SeaRay Sundancer out there, but sold it about 10 years ago. Now I just have a small seadoo jet boat to play around on. Big boats are a pain and a ton of maintenance to keep up with. But who knows, when I retire, I may get another one.
I've never owned a boat myself, but my friends down here on the Jersey shore say there are only two good days to own a boat. The day you buy it and the day you sell it.

Grey w/ yellow calipers is a classy combo. Very under-rated. Nice pictures and nicer car.

I agree, it looks great. I've been planning to get a red or yellow '16 but more pics like these might make me change my mind!

[Don't really get why some think people must be in the photos, though...great as is, the subject is in focus]

I spent a while trying to decide on what color. Originally it was between white or yellow. I decided against white, because every new c7 I saw in my area was white and I like to be different. Yellow, although a great looking color, seemed to be a little to flashy for me. As I was looking at the brochure, seeing all the images of the Cyber Grey, and how it changed looks from one picture to the other, I thought this is cool. I knew I wanted this combo when I saw a Grey Ferrari 458 go by with yellow calipers. It made the already exotic looking C7 stingray, even more exotic. Needless to say, I am very happy with the color combo I chose and never had a second thought about it.
