Look at the back of the car in the picture where it is parked in front of Bubba Jax Crab Shack. I have to agree...

It looks stunning. The look of the car is really starting to grow on me. White is my top 3 choice.

Thanks for the pics. Please don't hesitate to post more.

Care to remark how it drives?

How is the rearward visibility compared to the C6.
I have a concern that visibility could be impaired in the new design - ala - the Camaro.

Inquiring minds....

Great pics.

I ordered white and I can't wait to get it!

Are those the chrome or silver painted wheels?

what a gorgeous car! Does it have 3LT interior with Brownstone leather? That is the sweetest combination!

Looks like the light sensor. I never had to turn on or off head- or dash lights in my C6 because the sensor performed it automatically.

Drove along "The Tail of the Dragon" in the Blue Ridge mountains between North Carolina and Tennessee. Look it up. Many videos on YouTube.

Most likely it is a sunlight sensor. It can actuate a vehicle’s daytime running lamps, signal the instrument panel to illuminate or even regulate climate control, depending on the vehicle.

I agree. Every time I've seen the car with the CF/transparent roof, it just looked odd to me, the transparent roof never bothered me on the C6.

And a ball of fun! My RX-8 and Cooper S have been "Dragon Tested" several times. The Cherohola[?] Skyway is a really nice drive as well.
