You are wrong. I saw one at Classic Chevrolet in Sugar Land. It was awesome (its a corvette). Still waiting on mine. Enjoy it!!!

Houston, peeps, im finalizing financing on my c7 as we speak, curious what rates/terms you guys got locally? any recommendations on credit unions in town that may offer a better deal than the big banks?

I'm tryiing to finance for 72 mos with little to no down. Stellar credit. Already got approved but i dont think the rate im getting offered is the best (2.99% on 72 mos) from GM.

Thanks for any help!

My fellow houstonians, whom are you ordering from? Is there someone in the city (Dealer) worth dealing with or are you guys all going out of state for the forum vendors?

Same with me - 2013 1T coupe, Supersonic Blue, A6, cross drilled rotors, base painted wheels. I have been to Cars and Coffee and was surprised to get quite a few looks. Like you say it is all that matters

NEWS FLASH...I saw one today. Actually I saw three. I was coming from downtown on I45 south of the beltway and saw a carrier coming north. I know there are exactly three dealers he could have been coming from and Norman Frede is basically on my way home if I want to go that way. Sure enough, three had been unloaded within an hour or so. They already had the covers pulled off, and the new to be owner of one of them was already sitting in his car!

One was Cyber gray with Kalihari (don't make me look at how it's really spelled), one was black and one Blue (laguna?). As everyone has said, pictures really do not do them justice. I really liked them. The only think that stuck out that I did not like was the black on the bottom of the rear valence on the blue car. On the black and Cyber gray it blended in okay. The rear all needs to be body color.

But my lunch offer still stands for now!

I'm willing on betting they won't be there this weekend. You might call first.

Congratulations. After seeing the ones at Norman Frede today I am officially jealous. I was a very early C6 customer so I know the feeling, but I'm the first to admit that the C7 is a much greater step forward than the C6 was, so I can only imagine how pumped ya'll are.
