Awesome experience!
I want to thank Larry at the Corvette Museum for the best day of my life, whoops 2nd best day (two kids being born come first). He did a great job going over the car, and showing us the factory and museum. The car is PHENOMENAL wow it is hard not puting my foot into it all the time. He said take it easy nothing over 65 on the way home to Ohio, got up to 75 several times but nothing to bad took me 3 hours to get donw there in a rental car and 4 1/2 to get home so I was driving pretty slow on the way back, but he did not say anything about cornering hard. Man that on ramp from the museum to I-65 North is awesome nice gradual 360 ramp, handles like nothing else, I was plastered to the drivers side door till I straightened up.
I love my color Victory Red with Comp Grey wheels, looks BAD.
I like jetstream blue much better no that I have seen it in person but I still don't think that I would order it a little to light for me.
Friday 9/7 was my delivery day and there were six deliveries that day all different colors which was neat to see all the colors lined up in a row. Black, Crystal Red, Victory Red, Silver, Atomic Orange, Jetstream Blue.
To the other Corvette Forum member getting the Silver Coupe I hope the drive to Texas went well, and good luck with the car.
Can't wait to do it again. Sorry I am unable to post photos it wont let me for some reason. But the Avatar is the new VETTE!
Also interesting note during the whole factory tour I only saw One White Vette on the line. Might be pretty rare this year.

Congratulations! I picked up my coupe on Wednesday at my dealer because I am a bit far for a museum delivery. I was down there two weeks ago for the buyer's tour though - love the museum and factory!
Have fun.
Brian
