Is it possible for you to find out who the Corvette technician is at your dealers or is there more than one? If it's possible to find out who would "normally" work on yours, I'd become VERY good friends with that person ASAP.

Museum delivery 9/11/04. Ordered it thru Kerbeck. VIN 1384.

 

VIN# 338(PR Ebony) IS IN MY GARAGE!!! Picked it up today at noon and I'm still smiling....
I go out to the garage and keep making sure it's still there<G>!

The paint is gorgeous! If I look REALLY close I might detect some OP but NOTHING like the pictures I've seen here. THe dealer clean-up could have been a little better as I have little pieces of "shipping plastic" still stuck on it.

I took 66 miles of back roads to get home rather than the freeways.
For those in and around the Santa Clara Valley I took the Hecker Pass road from Gilroy to Watsonville and it was fabulous! Kept it under 55mph and 2000rpms and was amazed at the handling. I could tell the difference between "Tour/Sport" (Auto, F55, 3.15). When I switched to Sport "she" seemed to get a lot ......tighter, sorta crouched down and wanted to play<G>. Sheesh...I still smile thinking about it and I wasn't even pushing the envelope!

I think this the first car I've felt so at home in the moment I started it and put in gear. I'm a big dude, 6'2" 280lbs. I should say that my weight is spread over my whole body, no big gut or butt<G> (Probably more than you all wanted to know) and I fit in it VERY comfortably. Loads of head room , well 2" anyway. Lots of room leg wise. Hips? ,,er....needless to say I'm very ..secure.

Complaints? hmm...well I do hear "rumblings" from what I will assume is the top. Silicone grease is on the shopping list. Fit and Finish are really good. Possible exception may be around the hatch....it looks a little more gap on one side than the other....very small. The hatch "catch" though has obviously been "worked on" quite a bit. Lotta shims and paint is worn off it...looks a little "hokey"; I'll hit it with some black paint later.

Might have been my imagination but I kept smelling..."funny" odors which I put down to new car being heated up and driven for the first time in real life..

Water temp = 200 - 215 deg. pressure and everything else ok. I didn't know how to "access" the oil temp today. Tomorrow is "getting to know you" day.

 

Congrats. I know how you feel about going out to make sure it's still there every 30 mins or so

Enjoy!

 

Congratulations. Access the oil temp by repeatedly pressing the "gages" button on the right side of the dash. The "gages" button is the second one from the top. It will display on the DIC.

 

mine was also ordered by the dealer it's got xm nav polished wheels transparent top everything.whoever ordered this did a great job

 

Deposit 4/9....Delivered 9/17......P.R. Cashmere..auto 3.15 XM,ONSTAR POLISHED WHEELS 1SB.....Cant say enough about the color and the differant personalities it takes on in lighting changes..

 

vin #2151 pr,cashmere,6spd,1sb,z51, xm,onstar,polished wheels,nav, ordered car.recieved 9/16.Nothing but positive comments on the color.

 

Ordered my C6 early based on my 2002 C5 which was Torch Red with the Red interior. You could not get red interior with Mag red so I went with Precision Red. The color is not as in your face as the Torch red but I like the color and the finish is excellent. I do like the red interior as it breaks up all the black on the inside. I did make the mistake of not ordering the Z51 suspension based on my prior experience with a first year 1984 Corvette. No problems with the car. Like it I love it!

Early vin 100783

 

PR over here too!!! black int.

 

i ordered mine from the list of inbound cars the dealer had coming in and drove off about 10 minutes after it rolled off the carrier it has transparent top,3.15 rear axle,polished wheels,onstar,xm,nav,1sb,that's about it

 

Precision Red here as well, bought on 10/30 . 1SB, auto, 3.15 axle, ebony interior, and XM. This is my take on the color

 

[QUOTE=Wolfbane]Just curious as to how many Precision Red owners there were on the forum? Did you get yours off the showroom floor or order it? What options?QUOTE]

I got lucky.
I ordered mine with an L.A. salesman that had been off sick for two weeks.

A week later when he returned, he called me and said there was EXACTLY what I wanted on the floor, but it hadn't been logged into inventory yet.

Precision Red, 1SB, Ebony, Z-51, 6 spd, stock rims which are being replaced with chrome trades from vendor, and XM which I didn't really want, but hey what the hell.
Happy Holidays All.

 

I had called around for a PR car after being told it had been discontinued. Dealer in Salem Ma called me on 9/15 at 9AM. The car was in my garage that afternoon. 1SB, Z51, MN6 and polished wheels. Best corvette color ever in my opinion. Many positive comments. It looks different depending on the light it's in.

 

I got from a dealer that had four colors to choose from. pr/ebony,auto,1sb,Z51,xm,onstar,and polished wheels. vin 2889. there is a local dealer here that has one still.

 

Bought on 11-08, after going intot he dealer to look at a white car, 2300 off MSRP. #3749, Z-51 auto, cashmere, polished wheels, 1SB, Onstar, 900 miles, no problems, no issues. But I could care less for onstar.

 

Hi, I.m german and the first vettes has arrived. At my dealer he got his first one last thursday - color is Victory red with cashmere
In my (the german catalog) it says the precision red will only be build to fall and thereafter the color will be a Victory red.
Do you know something about it?
Thanks
Harry
