Default Sold the C6!

Hey everyone!

I sold my NRB Grand Sport this past weekend. Ordered a 2015 Z06 in September! I'll be moving on to the C7 Forums. Its been a wonderful experience here. I'll check in from time to time. I'm sure many of you already visit the C7 side, so I'll see you there!

I hear that the C7 is as big of a jump as from 5 to 6. Enjoy!

Congrats on your C7. I hope to be there in the next few years.
You'll have to request a name change to FiremanC7 when you get your new toy.

Enjoy

Can you change your name? As you can see my name says C5 in it and I'm about to get the C6 in November, it wouldn't make sense if i had a C6 but my name is RaysC5 lol.

Whoever was making C7 replica parts for the C6 I hope starts making C7 Z06 parts for the Plain Jane C7 instead. I wouldn't mind a C7 but the MSRP arrogance from my dealer is astonishing.
