I'm off to go pick up (courtesy delivery) an 08 Z06 JSB,2LZ,NAV,Polished wheels.Time line: Ordered on 12-21-07(Before the plant closes for 2 weeks for the holidays,after the price increase damn it!). Car Born on 02-06. Shipped from bowling green on 2-14. Arrived at the dealership (San Bernardino CA.) on 02-18. This will be my 2nd Z06 and third Corvette. I feel like a proud father Also want to thank Rick Daniel from Les Stanford for making it happen without a hitch and a big thank you to all forum members who have helped me during the wait.

Congrats.

I've ordered a very similar car--Z06, JSB, 2LZ, Navi, Comp Gray Wheels, Ebony interior, Museum Delivery. My TPW is 3/3/08, and I'll pick it up in mid April. Ordered through Tim @ Boardwalk Chevy. for a GREAT price

The waiting is tough.

Enjoy!

Congrats Greg! You probably slept in it last night. I figure you're out driving & playing around today. Let us know how you like it when you get a chance. The build on mine was finished last week, so hopefully I'm just a few days behind you.
