I'm Loving My 427 Convertible! Best Corvette I've Ever Owned!

I am Doug Jones, and I support Tim Boone's Message
I just wanted to say that I (Tim Boone) love my 427 Convertible. I have so much fun with this car. By the way this is my personal car and not Boardwalk Chevrolet's car. This is my 7th Corvette that I have owned. I've had it for almost a year now. Pretty much stock except for LED side markers, cold air intake, and custom stripes which you can see in the picture.
I also have about 500hp 1970 C10. I know it is not a Corvette, but it is still a Chevrolet and in the 500hp club. Loud as hell and fun to drive with a massive cam. LOL!

Very happy with mine as well.
I like how you filled in the side markers and got rid of the vent windows on the C-10.

You can say that again. You can sell it for more than you bought it for.

Loving mine as well. Beautiful ride, but LOSE THAT ADVERTISING ON THE WINDOW!

Like yourself I'm also loving my 427 Convertible. In the circle of life, my first vette was a '67 convertible that was white with a blue interior, but it was a 327. I've had many since then, and I've enjoyed every one of them, and of them all this is my favorite.

I am wondering if I will like my C7 just as much as my 427. Only time will tell.

I plan to buy a 427 convertible someday. When I do get one, I don't plan to ever get rid of it. The C7 is going to have to be VERY good to pry a 427 out of my hands.

Well we know already, it will not be more powerful as your current 427, unless you are waiting for the Z06 or ZR1 version. Are you buying another vert? What options did you add on, and what color combination, if you don't mind saying?

I love mine too! It is my first Corvette and what a doozie! My 13 year old son and I just giggle every time we open it up, look at each other and say " I can't believe they let my buy this car"

I am going to go with a coupe and do white on white. Either that or I may wait for the Z06. I did order the SS sedan though in white.
