Just spending some of the kids inheritance. If you lived life to the fullest, the last check written out of the checkbook will go to the undertaker and it will BOUNCE !

Well said, enjoy life! Just curious, what different features did you get on the 2015? I've ordered a Shark Grey C7 Z51 and love the Cyber Grey color.

I told my niece who is my beneficiary that if there is any money left do what you want with it.
I also told her to don't make any plans because I plan on spending it all before I go.

First of all the reason for going to a 2015 was color change and the PDR. Price of 1 year of ownership, too much. Sorry kids.

FWIW, I really like the Shark Gray!

and make sure the check to the undertaker is good. They need to make a "living", too!

Interesting to see the two colors side-by-side. Was convinced I liked CG better, but now I'm not sure. I like them both, especially with the Kalahari interior. If you're going with the red interior though, I think SG is better.

Just my 2 cents.

Not a bad choice either way. Congratulations.
