Default The long wait is over.

black 15 z51 7spd mag 3lt. Love it. Trying to post pics but I can't figure out how to. I hit manage attachments and that does nothing. I downloaded a few pics but can't put in post. No problems with paint at all. Love the black rims. Was worried a bit because I changed from the chrome to black. Great move. Shifts easy. No issue with it going from first to fourth on me. No need for bypass kit regarding the one to four skip I've read about. My first vette and baring any future issues, I can say this is by far the most enjoyable car I've owned to date. Many nice bmw's but boring in comparison to the c7. Interior first class. I need to learn all the programming as dealer shipped to my door. Will say that dealer did and absolute **** job of detailing. Rims dirty on inside and out. Got wax on part of the seal between rear of removable roof and area where it meets the car. All plastic was off seats. Had 14 miles on it. No cover and was trailerd out in the open. Luckily no damage and I'm sending in for opticoat and expel treatment Monday. So far so cool.

Don't go overboard on cleaning or you will not really enjoy the car. Drive it and enjoy.
