Just reading through this thread, seems like there WAS a lot of angry (or jealous) people commenting, glad it's back on track. I'm not a big C7 guy but sometimes you see one that just looks right, looks like you got one of those...beautiful car, good luck!

Thanks Rob, my only intention was to say goodbye and thanks to everyone on the C6 forum. Maybe my attempt at some humor or the way I said it was confusing and misunderstood by some? And of course I'm the type that has to fire back so that makes it even worse. I'm glad it's back on track also.

I'm not buyin' that "dark side" stuff. The C7Z is a bad-assed car and it's a Corvette.

Special thanks to a few who helped me solve a couple of issues I had. And know that even though I'm in a C7 now if we meet on the road I will give you the "Corvette wave". Now I need to figure out how to change my forum handle.







I would not call it going to the dark side at all. You have a C-7 Corvette and are still a member of the Corvette Nation. Enjoy the new ride.

Congrats, that’s a great looking ride and a beast of a machine. Gotta say black with the clear tail lights works for me. Enjoy!

Enjoy the beast. It is a beauty but when you push that pedal that baby is a beast.

Congrats. I've been thinking about a Z06 but doubt I'd be able to let go of my '13 GS. I tend to hoard my vehicles and 'stuff'.

That C7 appears very impressive. Enjoy your new ride. As for the DARK SIDE thats not entirely true. I often visit and post over there being a Z06 guy. What better way to keep up too date. We are all in the Corvette Family. Again ...enjoy....

Your new Z is awesome. And that comes from a C6, ZO7 owner with a car that looks a bit like yours.....all black anyway.

Congrats! After a few miles in the seat, I'd like to know a real comparison to the C6. I've wondered about upgrading myself.

Nice looking Z! That thing has got to be a blast to drive!
As far as C7's go, I'd love to have a GS in the stable. I just couldn't give up my '13 GS to do it!
