Knapp said "November"

Classic didn't know they were hitting the ground till I told them, Dude logged into the system then and there while I was on the phone because he didn't believe me when I said "They are hitting the East Coast" - They said they should have one "by the end of the month"

Lone Star said "Any day now" - They have a truck on the way and they expect to be first in the city with them.

Bought mine from Lone Star. It is the first delivered from Lone Star, but it was delivered to the Corvette Museum for Museum Delivery on Oct 1st. I will be back in town with it Wed Oct 2nd You can see it here at the museum!

Looking forward to seeing one as well. Probably go to Classic Sugar Land to see it. Then laugh at the windshield dealer markup.

Do they really mark them up over MSRP? I read they were a forum dealer and had hoped that they would treat customers as well as some of the other forum dealers.

I did look at their website yesterday and it shows one in transit. It is hard to believe that most of us in or near Houston have yet to even see one in person.

Classic does not charge over MSRP. At least not with me.

In all fairness, I am remembering the Sugar Land location by the previous Bill Heard ownership which was legendary around the country no matter the location.
