Your right I did not read the whole thread got as far as the actual dealer blaming the car for starting in reverse with no foot on clutch . Now my curiosity will make me browse some more.

It's a whole lot faster to go to the OP's profile, view all his posts, and work backwards.

I appreciate all the comments because they were definitely entertaining Thread of the year nomination?
Just wanted to bring this up for those asking about the final outcome. It was only buried 200 posts ago @ #322. To the OP, we need pics of your new ride please!

Uh Oh!, That may be the post that kills the effort to reach post # 1,000.
Anyone agree?

I heard this is how you have to start the new c8. You stand outside and reach through the window to start it, it then backs up real fast for you. I guess you can jump in at that point, Im not sure as Im not a dealer or some hot shot mechanic.

OP hasn't posted since the update of resolution on 02/01. Was last on the forum on 03/01. Hopefully he will post up whatever replacement vehicle he buys, if any, to provide final closure.

Over a month!

I had only spot-checked this thread due to the insanity, and I blew right past that. When looking for the last post by the OP, I was disappointed to see it was so long ago.

Maybe that post by the "Controller" of the dealership really was him, and the settlement included some agreement to not disparage them any more, thus the Op's silence since. Who knows if he got another Vette or maybe now has an Odyssey.
