Default Got mine
Took delivery of my crystal red convertible, 3LT, automatic, multi-mode exhaust, and chrome wheels on Tuesday. Great car. What a blast to drive! Thank you Ken Fichtner and the team at Fichtner Chevrolet. They made the buying experience easy. I purchased the mud flaps and Stingray sill plates from their parts department. I installed them last night and it was quick and easy. Now if it would only stop raining here in Portland so I could put the top down.
