I also just picked up my c7 arctic white, red, manual, Npp, nav and ordered a white z51 spoiler. Great color and so improved . Good luck with that beauty.

This thread saved me some grief at home.

I knew I wanted Torch Red. My wife informed me that I was mistaken and that I really wanted AW. I was driving a Blade Silver Grand Sport and was sure I wanted Torch Red after having my last two Corvettes in silver. My wife insisted that I was not feeling well and suggested that I reconsider, or seek medical assistance.

After seeing this thread and the examples you have posted I realized that once again, she was right. AW looks so incredible on this car, and I always had a special place for this white ZR1 that was at my dealership until recently.

In the end, I sold my Grand Sport yesterday and placed an order for an AW Z51 M7 with all the parts that are on constraint. Who knows when I'll get it, but eventually I will have it and post pics here.

Thanks for the pics and keeping me in a happy home.

Glad we could sway you from the dark side to the AW side...

Looking forward to your pics. Here is my build from the configurator. Can't wait to see real pics of it in the coming weeks...

Looks nice. The carbon flash mirrors and spoiler were a hard decision to me. I ended up placing my order w/o them though. I still think they look good, but felt like I might get tired of them. Since I didn't get the mirrors and spoiler done, I decided to get the silver wheels.

You already have the black wheels, so I would be tempted to do the rest of the black out though. Either way, the car is awesome.

the short throw shifter is so much better than stock. I had the dealer and my wife drive it and they both agreed.

Cool. I'll be lining up for the MGW or other that keeps the stock **** when my car shows up.

I ordered the competition seats + micro suede, so I'm getting the micro suede steering wheel and shift **** with that combo and want to keep it stock looking.

Default White Wheels too!

I just had them powdercoated to match the car. Not everyone's cup of tea, but I think it will really look sharp.

Yup not for everyone but you still get props! Nice outcome... that looks heavenly clean! Daily (or after drives) anti-brakedust upkeep once mounted but I bet that'll look sharp.

It will take a few miles to settle the suspension back down since it has been on jacks for a week.

Nice Rims but can you back off from the car a little bit then take some pictures. Hard to get the overall look for me. Either way, thanks for posting! Looks good from what I could tell.

Default Back from Bowling Green

Hi Guys,

finally get my arctic white new baby.
I friend of mine picked his black vette
up on the same day.
It took us 4 days to go back to Florida (-:
We hit the NC Mountains and some nice back
roads.
The C7 is so awesome. Can not have enough of it (-:
