Default My new Grand Sport

I loved the styling and some of the other features on the new 2017 Grand Sport, so I couldn't help my self and purchased one in Long Beach Red. Here is a picture of it along with my 2016 Torch Red Stingray under the car cover beside it.

Limeray,

The 2016 Stingray will be going away. I have it sold and it will just be stored in my garage for a while until weather improves.

Self control is overrated. I'd have jumped on it too!
