Default WoooHooo !! I bought it

Hi all,
I went back to the dealer this morning and made a deal on the 14 Premier Edition. The PE doesn't mean diddly to me, it's there, but the car is flat out beautiful. I think it's #190 out of 500. I was kidding with the sales mgr. not to wash,wax or even touch the car as it's perfect. I will be picking it up Monday. I got the carfax today, it's CPO, and the original owner had X-pel put on or something like it. Somehow I knew from the minute I saw it I would be buying it. I just had that feeling. Did I mention that it's beautiful....

Thanks for all of your help,
Rick

Congrats OP. They are a beautiful combination. And can be very alluring. My buddy bought his new and still has it. His car was instrumental in my decision to upgrade from my 08 to a new C7...

it was also the deciding factor to spend the extra on the 3LZ interior of my Z06 as another friend had the 2LT interior and I loved the upgrades the 3 brings.

Hey,
That looks just like it.Except the one I,m getting has the black stripe behind the hood vent. The luggage wasn't there, but the original owner lives about 5 miles from me. Maybe I'll bump in to him. I still can't believe that less than 2 weeks ago I had a 66 coupe and Monday I will have a C7.

Hey,
I can take great pictures but can't get them on line. Once I get it in my driveway I will take some and maybe mail them to a fellow member to post.
