Default Just ordered new C6

Went to look at a LMB C6 and fell in love with the Magnetic Red. So I ordered one. 1sb, Nav, 6 spd, Z51, black interion. I decided not to go with the polished wheels, as I don't think they were a good match with this color. Does anyone have a link to pictures of the new Grey painted wheels?

Well, the wait is on. 2 to 3 months now.

Bye the way, drove one on their lot, phenominal car. Can't wait.

Mine will be MY, but IMO they will look good on the red also.

I'm sure it will feel like forever, however, the foot of snow on the ground here in Chicago will help. I odn't know how many vetteless 70 degree days I could stand.....

I bought a Mag Red with Steel Grey Interior, 1SB, MN6, Nav,Polished Wheels. Very pleased with the colors as they all lend themselves to each other.
By the way I also got the transparent top and imho it looks great with the Mag Red.
Time will pass slowly however the wait is worth it!

Congrats, you'll love the mag red. Different lighting brings out different hues, sunlight makes it look candy apple.
