Was there getting my C7 Z51's first oil change. The competition seats were nice. I think the green looks amazing in the sun. Good luck.

From various photos in the past year I felt that I didn't like the Limerock Green. Then I saw the Limerock Green vert in person at the L.A. Auto Show. It had the same interior as yours.

Wow! It was simply stunning. Congrats & enjoy!

I saw that combination in a coupe a few months ago here in Detroit. I had to do a double take...it certainly looks sharp in person. The convertable looks even better. Enjoy it.

I had a similar experience at a cars and coffee. Never liked the LRG in pics but in person it looks great.

Interesting that the car was ordered with the competition seats. I was under the impression that those seats were made more for the track and not as comfortable? They look great, I'll say that...but odd that track seats would be in a 'vert that will not likely see a track. No offense...I'm just curious.

congrats, my first Corvette was an '00 DBGM with saddle interior and top, looking at yours brings back memories.

Enjoy.

I love the LRG, too. My LRG is being built this week! Being Irish I'm going to tell everyone the color is Irish Racing Green. Nobody will know the difference I figure. My son lives in CT so hoping to drive it to a race at Lime Rock Park soon.
