Arrival day!
Finally, after many months of waiting, my triple black Z51 vert has arrived!
I had been reading about how good the C7 is since its introduction, but driving it home was amazing! It was difficult to say goodbye to my C6 GS that had been perfect for me for four years, but my C7 is incredible in comparison!
Took one pic at the dealer of my C7 and one of my traded in C6, will take many more in the next few days with the top down!

Congrats! It is hard to say goodbye to a good C6 but the C7 makes up for the loss in so many ways!
Enjoy!

It was hard for me to leave my C6 behind too after 4 wonderful years. But the C7 quickly helped me put aside my sorrow!

Enjoy!
My Grand Sport never had a problem of any kind, but the C7 is much more car. The ride and the Technology is incredible.
Congratulations, what a beautiful car, black on black is hard to replace.
