Congratulations.....there are worse situations to be facing.

How does it go? If I didn't have bad luck I wouldn't have any luck at all.

Congratulations! I wish I had a problem like that!
Seriously though; I would keep them both if you could. The 03Z is a dynamite car, and the 07 Vert is incredible too. You could have the best os two worlds.
BTW: Power top does mean 3LT, so there is a good chance that it is a pretty well loaded car.

Congrats!!! I have the same story!
I played a scratch off game called corvette cash from the Ga lottery and I scratched off the corvette! Ya I won a 2007 vert. I told the lady at the lottery all the features I wanted and color and so fourth. she found one that had a bit more on it than the lottery would pay. Anyway I paid 1k and got my vert in three weeks!
Awsome! Only no taxes, Lottery paid that too. I was floored when I paid for the tags though. Great going man Happy for ya!

Default thx

guys, thx for all the congrats messages.

didn't mean to make it sound like I wasn't excited or grateful. Trust me I know there are much worse problems to have.

Spoke to the dealer today. It is a 2LT with the push button automatic. Not something I would have ever picked out myself but still very cool and nice problem to have obviously.

The C6 Z06 option is real tempting, but I have to wait and see how much "equity" i will have in the raffle car after paying fed and state withholding and 7% NJ sales taxes to boot.

will def have to figure out how to post some picts once i take delivery. going to try and delay until after new years. that way won't have to settle up with uncle sam until apr. 08.

Yes it was. My wife and I were supposed to be going to the event but had to back out.
