Default Colorado, Oklahoma, Texas Where can a see a c7

Hello,

I live in Oklahoma City but have to travel to CO, TX for my job. Is there any dealers in these three states that have a c7 to look at.


I am number 1 on the waiting list for a convertible. I just want to see the wheels, interior, etc. so I can be absolutely sure I am ordering what I want.

Thanks in advance,

DEAN

I'm in Houston. Haven't seen one yet. I'm pretty sure the first one I see will be when I'm picking mine up in Bowling Green :-)

I was told that there will be a C7 in Winter Park, CO this Saturday at Vettes On the Rockies. I hope that it's there because I am driving up in hopes of seeing one.

My dealer says they may hit the ground in September. Maybe. I want to see one as well before my order goes through.

They should have a few at the ALMS/WEC race at The Circuit of the Americas in Austin TX Sept 20-22. I will be there.

Negative. I have a friend with one on order, but probably won't see it until October because it's going straight to Hennessy.

I suspect that the first time I'll see one will be at the Texas State Fair here in Dallas (in September/October)... Although it seems very possible that they'll start to hit the streets before that.

Come to Eureka Springs, Arkansas the first weekend in October. If there are any C7's in private hands by then, there will be some at Eureka Springs. With some 1,000-1,200 Vettes in attendance, there will some that want to show off their new C7.

The Vettes4warriors show in Harrison, AR is Sept 6th & 7th. We hope to have a C7 on display, but it's looking very iffy at this point.

Most likely the first one I see will be at Coffee & Cars (first Saturday of every month). I'll be there this weekend to check things out, but I doubt there will be any yet. I would wager that they'll be there in September, though.

Just got off the phone with Mike at Purifoy Chevrolet in Fort Lupton, Colorado. They are one of the sponsors for the Vettes on the Rockies event being held in Winter Park, CO, from today (7/31) through Saturday 8/3. You can go to www.lgcacorvette.org for more information.

There will be two C7s there, a coupe and a convertible. In fact, they should be there now. I am headed up there tomorrow, Thursday 8/1, and I feel like a kid in the candy store!

Awesome! Thanks for verifying that the C7s will be there. I can't wait to see them.

I'm in JV and have Lone Stars 2nd allocation. Doing museum delivery. You might see me first. Look for a Silver driven by a female :-)

Great. You should have an early delivery. PM me when you get it. I'd love to take a look. I currently have a silver C6 but my C7 will be either NRB or CG with Kalahari interior.

Be sure to bring it to The Vintage on September 7th at around 6:30 AM so you can get a prominent parking spot.
