Default Picked up my Grand Sport at MacMulkin today

Finally got some rain yesterday to wash the salt off the roads so I headed up to MacMulkin to pick up my Grand Sport. Couldn't wipe the grin off all the way home. MacMulkin was great to deal with, one of the easiest car purchases I've ever done. Special thanks to Kenny G. who texted back and forth with me all morning on his own time.

Congrats enjoy love the color!
I came very close to buying that exact car stripes and all.
We spent hours deciding on the color I even had them pull cars next to each other to compare. I test drove a yellow one I thought that was the one I was bringing home and it was a last second flip of a coin to decide on Blue.

Wow, love the color. Just ordered a Racing yellow Z06 from Joshua at MacMulkin with black dual racing stripes. Yours looks awesome, definitely can't wait for her to come in. Can't even imagine how happy you are right now. Good luck

That's really funny as I waffled between yellow/black/grey hash and blue/white/red hash. But yellow has always been my favorite sports car color so I went with my gut and first choice. I'm glad I did but the blue/white/red color combo looks amazing too.

Amazing. I generally would not buy a yellow one and do not like stripes or hash marks or black wheels or yellow calipers but here I am salivating looking at your car. That combination is over the top beautiful.

Congrats. I may be just a bit biased, but that's one beautiful color combo.

Honestly it's all but impossible to come up with a color combo that does not look good on this car.

I'm not a fan of red cars but Torch Red with black or white stripes looks great. I don't care for white cars but white with the red interior looks fantastic. So good that I briefly considered the white/red/blue Grand Sport color scheme. Gray is a bit too plain for me but WGG with red looks fantastic. How can you go wrong?
