No no, black is badass, my C6 was black, loved it, just a lot to take care of. Just put on about 100 coats of wax...

I always thought black was the best looking color on a Vette. As my only black one was a daily driver, that was good for about an hour a week .

Good luck with yours, it looks awesome. How do you think those seats will do on longer drives? They remind me of the bolstering in my old C4, which I absolutely loved, but those may have been a bit "floppier," and thus more "forgiving," than the C7's magnesium-framed seats.

Chicago, I think it was a tad over 60k, with Z51 and 3LT alone.
Beautiful car, enjoy the breakin. I just turned 900 miles and the car is
really coming alive.
Are you going to be driving in the salt and snow? I hope not. I think if I lived
there I would rent a car during the salty season. I actually did live in a crash pad right
next to Midway airport. Winters were nasty. I flew for an airline and walked to the airport in the snow and slush. Not fun.
Anyway congrats on your new machine.

Won't be driving in the salt/snow. The comp seats are def comfortable to me. I'm 5'5" 135 pounds. I love how they really hold you in the seat. I could see them being perfect even for long trips but that's just my opinion.
