Default C7 after 05 Viper

Finally did the step and sold my 05 Viper.
Was waiting for years on a automatic Tranny but it didn't happen
on the new Snake.
Waiting now on my 1LT Z51 Coupe in Arctic White with Magnetic Ride.
Red Int. and Calibers and black Wheels.
I wish i had a time machine

Damn fine combo there. Arctic white cars look freakin incredible with the black wheels. You get the partially painted carbon roof panel? I think it looks best when that white goes to the windshield. It looks weird when it stops from a side profile.

That's gonna be a nice car...

I haven't....I was tempted, but as a current supercharged C5Z owner, I've decided to hold out until the anticipated Z0x that is coming. I was real close to buying the car you pretty much bought, but I also began opening a bar/restaurant in Feb, right after the debut. So, since that situation turned me a bit cash poor, and not wanting payments, as I've never bought a car on payments due to my lifestyle...I decided to wait.

The thought process is though, as long as my establishment is doing well next year, I'll sell the C5Z, then put another 20k or so down, and for the first time ever, finance the rest...and hope my life holds...lol. I tend to go from one business venture to the next quite often, so that's why I always bought stuff cash. With the C7Z though....gonna need a little help getting that one I think....unless!
