I never for a moment thought this was a troll. Following his posts and timeline it was pretty obvious that he got it home late and we would see it some time today. Doc, it's a gorgeous car and thanks for posting The best of luck with it and keep us posted on your thoughts.

Place them at Photobucket or similar hosting site and then when composing message here hit that little yellow landscape button above and plug the URL for the picture into the little window that pops up. See testing Forum here: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/testing-68/ to verify you are doing it right.

You guys should know how it is around here, to the op cool glad you posted pics. I was getting impatient myself. I wanted to know who the first one in CF would own one that posted pics.

Now first to drag it

I just saw pictures of it in the sun and take back everything I said. Great buy and congrats !!
CG is an awesome color and is what I would have ordered but my buddy's C6 is CG so I decided to go with CRT.

take it out. So many on here act like little kids. Its just a car. Sounds
like many don't get one too often
Who cares what you do with your cars once you buy them? No one here does...

Can we have some driving impressions? What other sports cars do you or have you owned? How is the Torque since it has similar curve to C6 Z06?

Is it automatic or manual? If auto how is the shifting and response of shifting?

I will take more pics too!

CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!

Hey I bet you wish that Ford GT had the electronics the C7 has. My Ford GT could not be driven hard until the temp was over 75 outside. Even then you had to warm those Goodyears up real good.

Great color, looks awesome. Congrats. I was going to go with the Charcoal myself but my Panamera is charcoal so I decided to go with the red tintcoat instead. Hopefully I like it becasue I have yet to see that color in person.
