I can't believe that someone was so STUPID as to put the stripes on wrong!

those stripes are silly no matter what direction you point them....I think they detract from the car.

Are the front and back wheels different or is it just the angle?? I think the stripes look good even thought they are on wrong!

To bad they are dealer installed, if factory did it it would be a 1 of a kind, a real collectors item.

True. Although ads show GS's with the Heritage Package stripes they haven't been available. So some dealers have their stripe guy come in and add some stripes. Unfortunately nobody at this dealer bothered to show the stripe guy how they were supposed to look.

I was told that this car was used in our recent Auto Show in Seattle. You would think that Chevy would have said something to the dealer.

Try visiting some of the Chevy dealers around here who have NO CLUE about anything to do with a Vette but think they know it all as we stand there and laugh at them spewing nonsense

and some can't understand why most of us are terrified to even DRIVE by a dealer let alone take our cars in for ANYTHING. that reminds me when my 04 got DBS about two years in. the service department must have thought that i was nuts when i made the appointment for the battery problem and then just showed up with the battery and not the car .

That car may just be 1 of a kind. Better buy it. It will probably be a collectors item in a few years.

Yipes, stripes!

First thing I noticed, evidently this dealer does not see too many Corvettes.

Greetings Vette Enthusiasts,

I work here at this lovely dealership and I need to let you know that this 2010 GS is a - Spec-Event Car and it came from Seattle Auto Show. The stripes in this discussion thread were not dealer installed.

built on the Manifest: with the Heritage Package - backwards

Happy New Year
