Default 2015 C7 - Foldntop

On September 19 took delivery of this triple black vert. She's a 2015 -Z51-3LT , 7 Speed manual.
BTW once the suspension settles in I plan to lower her a bit on stock bolts.

Here are a few pics.

You're a lucky guy Jim, that's a beautiful ride! I had a dream I bought a Crystal Red 2015 Stingray last night, hopefully it's a premonition!

Why wait for the suspension to settle to lower it though? When I get one I plan on lowering it immediately, in fact I'd probably work it into the deal with the dealership for them to lower it before I even took delivery.

Congratulations, that's a real beauty I'm sure you're going to enjoy it for years to come.

You have to be the first Canadian customer I've heard of take delivery of a 2015; most of them, according to the C7 boards, are still stuck at code 1100.

On last week's Niagara cruise there was a black 2015 C7, the guy originally ordered a 2014 from Budd's in Oakville around February or March but they ran out of allocations and so he ended up getting one of the very first 2015s instead (he said it was 300th off the assembly line)

I'm actually surprised that it has taken this long for one of our long time members to get a C7, I figured that someone would have gotten one the end of last summer or at the very least someone would have shown up at the first get together in April with one. I also thought by now that at least 5 or 6 others one here would have traded up by now. I guess a few are waiting for the Z06 and others simply did not want to have a first year model.

Dibs on those wheels and tires if you decide to upgrade, Jim. Those would look awesome on my C6.
