take it out. So many on here act like little kids. Its just a car. Sounds
like many don't get one too often
No, it's NOT just a car! It is a very SPECIAL car and any one who owns one should be proud of it! Yes, and it is perfectly OK to act like a little kid! I have owned four Corvettes previously and I have been waiting eight months to take delivery! Mine was shipped yesterday and when it gets here I will be driving it and acting like a little kid.........although I am 76 years old! I have owned many cars, but this one has excited me more than ANY I have previously owned!

Sorry I really do not have any more info for everyone as I do not have the time today to really open it up and have fun. Its a family day and that takes priority.

Hope you all have a great day
CONGRATS on a beautiful car! Congrats also for having your priorities in order. Enjoy your wonderful family and get back to us when you have time. Thanks for taking time to post what you did!

Well a big mea culpa on behalf of myself and all others who grew impatient with the OP! This guy and the car are for real.

Nice ride man and enjoy it as one of the first if not the

first privately owned C7 on the road !!!!

Again congrats and you can paint me green with envy
