Nice meeting you today! What an awesome car! that color combo looked very sleek yet elegant.

Hopefully when I get mine in march, we can go for a cruise!

Ditto great meeting another corvette enthusiast. Would love to get a couple of cars together for a cruise. Spent all day so far driving around and giving rides. Never had so many thumbs up from all walks of life in one day ever. People seem to love the car lol.

I absolutely love the SG. Bought sight unseen as far as color and wouldn't do it any other way not that I see it. All the accents just pop with the SG.

Nicely done! If I get a chance to order a Z06, I am going with that exact combo. Always loved the look of black, but hated the part time job keeping it looking good. Now with SG, you get the mean look of the dark color without the upkeep. Plus the CF accents, black wheels, and red calipers tie perfectly.

Now, black out the chrome grill and add a set of splitter/skirts and you are MONEY!!!
