Default Got mine!

Took a while to find the combination I wanted in stock somewhere from a dealer who was willing to negotiate, but snagged mine and even avoided the dreaded price increase!

Thanks! I see you two are fellow Texans, where the in-stock supply from dealers across the state has been dismal. I thought I was going to have to wait for the spring thaw and fly north to a forum dealer!

I ordered my new C7 on January 31, 2014 and picked it up yesterday Friday March 7,2014. It took exactly 5 weeks for me to get my Cyber Gray C7, 1 LT. I ordered the Car from Phillips Chevy in Frankfort Illinois. Nobody was close to them price wise, NOBODY. This is my 7th Corvette and its still a thrill to pick up a new Corvette. On the way home from the dealer i stopped off at Weathertech store in Bolingbrook, Illinois and picked up the new floorliners for the Corvette. It's the first time i was at there store and its really a nice place. The staff and service was good.

It really grabbed me when I saw it, the chrome wheels with the (oft-maligned) chrome grill strip and the chrome stingray emblem just all complement each other beautifully. I'm having a gas as a new member of the club!
