I have a BS vert on order and am curious why there is 6 days between delivery to the dealer and you. Is that your choice? Love your choice of color!

They normally keep them at the plant for 2 weeks before releasing them for shipment. Mine was built on 9/12/14 and I picked it up at the museum on 10/17/14, my choice.

Mine is a b/s z51 a8 vert with a 3 Lt red adrenaline interior with a carbon flash stinger, mirrors and spoiler. I only have 1500 miles on the clock. Can't wait for warm weather and get it out of the garage.

They all have summer tires. It's the only choice.

If the OP's BS does not have NPP, like mine shown, there will be a gap. Doesn't brother me what so ever.

Nice C7. What color interior?

That was an unreal timeline! Congrats on your Blade Silver beauty.
Nice to see my hometown of Syracuse has less snow than we do
You'll be so glad to get it home, I know.
