The Drark Side

I purchased my PR 05 C6 in September 04, had it now for over 10 years. Took it to the dealer for some minor work. They had a 15 C7 in the showroom. Long story short I traded it in on the C7 will pick the C7 up tomorrow. I guess I will be hanging out on the C7 pages now...
Thanks to everyone for all the help and good conversation over the past 10 years...

I thought you were going to say something completely screwed up like you were going to buy an import. At least you still have your sanity.

Went on a ride this weekend with some friends and one of them had a C7. Very nice car, I would trade mine in for one in a minute if I had an extra 35k laying around.

Good luck with the new toy.

Being up here near the proving grounds I get to see alot of test mules running around. I went by 2 of the wide body Vettes the other day. They are nice.

Not sure if you've heard, but GM Just recently announced they'll be going ahead with a C7 wide body project codenamed "Z06." Should be pretty neat.

When you see it up close it looks great. The 2 that I saw had man. plates on them with two 30yr.(approx.) girls driving them. I suppose that makes sense, most guys couldn't resist the urge to have fun with them.
