Default Aint it beautiful

I was on a motorcyle trip and saw this somewhere off of the Blue Ridge Parkway. I thought it was one of the most beautiful sites on the trip!!!

Only way it would be beautiful is if all of those Z06's were parked in my driveway.

Depending on what options are on the cars, around $555k at MSRP. Probably more though and of course a lot more than that with dealer markup.

I always thought that when I bought my first spanking "brand-new" C6 I would like for it to be transported to the dealership in a covered tractor trailer .. but then again I think we do not have control over that and then there's always the NCM delivery option for paranoids like me!! Either wayz thankz for sharing a once-a-few-lifetime moment with forum folks
