Default Pictures of the new C7 long overdue

So December was a good month for me. Bought and closed my second home in Tracy. A Ranchette with 1.5 acres and a 1400 sq ft shop (who cares about the rest) and my new to me 14' 2LT Z51. Care has nothing for miles but did come with a full APR carbon fiber kit and Corsa Xtreme black polished catback (x pipe as well). Otherwise stock. Before the purchase I bought a bunch of **** half in which I need to sell but the A&A supercharger, TSP long tubes, ported tb, and meth kit will come in handy. Now my biggest challenge is time to enjoy. I have been in Washington DC for 10 days and here until next Thur then a hellish Feb as well. Whats crazy is my shop is behind the house and at the moment lakes would prevent me from moving the car even if I were home. LOL Here are a few shots. A couple are in front of my new house or at least the barn. And as you can see I lowered the car same day. Some will like it others (George) not so much but with it being my 3rd yellow Corvette I love it.

Thank you sir I am sure excited. Let this weather side and me get some crushed gravel on the yard and we can have a damn car show if we wanted. I plan on getting a lift in the next few weeks so a mod day would be perfect.

T what do you think? That super sophisticated fancy transmission cant keep up with my gear burning, clutch grinding, no driving @ss lol. Its Manual. Honestly that was the hard part everyone had Autos. They are fast but IMO totally take from the drivers experience.


Thanks everyone

I know right. We got to talking on the phone and the guy is forced to sell. Also picking up a set of APR CF engine covers and a breather system as well. Im in Washington DC getting ready for this **** storm. I will text you later to see if you want those Hydro CF covers I bought a couple months back before I post up.

Looks great. Hope to see you at Blackhawk C&C some day!

We don't have a lot of yellow ones that show up, so we should be able to pick you out.

Cheers!
