My first Corvette
I pick up my Crystal Red Corvette tomorrow at the Museum. After reading a lot of the comments about the tour, I know it will be great.
I ordered it through MacMulkin Chevrolet after hearing all of the recommendations from people on the Forum. Tommy Jr has been great to work with throughout this process, and makes the buying process simple and straightforward.
Aside from the color the other options are 2LT, MXO, NPP, two tone titanium gray seats, NPP, GU2. I'm looking forward to the exhaust system and paddle shifters.
Thanks to all of the useful information on the Forum

Congratulations!!!! 
I was just up there before thanksgiving. You are going to love it!!! Take your time on the factory tour and ask lots of questions. Great way to learn about your car. The museum tour is excellent as well. Lots to see and don't get rushed through it although I know you will be chomping at the bit to get behind the wheel of the new ride!
Have a great time!!!!

Congrats, Alan! You're in for a fantastic experience. I'm sure others here will agree that taking delivery of one's first Corvette ranks right up there with the very best of life's other firsts, er, if you know what I mean. That's the way it was for me, at least.
