Agreed. GM hit a home run with the C7 IMO.

Might not sell for a while.

No!
What happened to the cruiser?
Edit: I just searched and found your thread explaining the accident. Any pics of the damage? Glad you're OK even though the cruiser took a punch.

Nice.
I too will own a C7 eventually, but it will likely be 4 or 5 more years.

Congrats on your purchase. They are awesome cars. However, that car that Mr. Bill posted, I'd have to lower about four inches!

Funny that I should see this thread today. I left the office to run home and grab a package that needed to be mailed out (black out lens to evillsx in Georgia) and as I'm travelling N to the house what do I see??? A whole transport load of new C7s, about 8-10 of them, on the way to the dealer. There is a dealer about 2 mi from my house, so I think I know where they were headed.

I FINALLY got to sit in one. It had the sport seats in it and wow are they nice. Still way to rich for my blood, but I will own one eventually.

See you guys, always great fun!!!
I for one like the c6 and will in a year or two be looking
for a 2010 to 2012 low mileage to replace my 03 coupe.
It has only 28000 miles but getting concerned about the lack of parts

Is yours at the factory height? If so then I guess the nicest answer would be "people like different things"
