BTW...note the ride height. There were comments avout the height of the cars in the Kerbeck thread. This car and the car delivered to Mr. Kerbeck look great.

Congrats on being the first on the Forum to bring a C7 home!

Your CG car is stunning, so much so that my wife is pushing me to change my status 1100 vert order from TR/Kalahari to CG/Kalahari!

Thanks all for the kind words after the original attack....
I really am shocked I received so much attention. Its amazing that I am considered the first. Its very special to me. Ive waited 12 years to get my new baby after a flat bed took my C5 away after my lease terminated.
I learned that i want to be an owner so this time I bought this baby!!!!!!

To all of you who are waiting for your car I hope they arrive real soon. The car is amazing. As much as I like being the first and getting the attention I really would like to see other C7s on the road. This car is a magnet for people and Im hoping that it stays safe where I drive it.

Well being first on the road will be awhile since they only make 110 a day 5 days a week in this very large country . Yes you will have to put up with all that goes with this unique car and being the first. Enjoy your 15 minutes of fame , more like 3 months of fame. This is truly a 1963 vette all over again. Yes I can't wait to get mine but will enjoy your experience just as well.
