I would LOVE to drive it and check it out. Not Happening as I live in northern Michigan.

Love the color and the manual with NO options. A PURE C7.

It would be great for comparing to the Z51, or the Mag Shocks, or the Auto, or the many other talked about options. Your car should be the lightest C7 possible. I think you can hit 60 in first gear?? A Z51 has different gearing and needs to shift into second for 60.

Sweet car i'm sure.

I think you should say "no additional options" since a c7 has so much to begin with!

Congrats on your new ride!

Congrats, that's a lot of car for the money. Love my options, but most do seem a bit overpriced.

I almost bought my 2014 NRB 1LT 7M just like that - but I opted for the NPP exhaust.
Still 100% happy with my choices.

When one talks about value, this is it. Pure C7 at the lowest price. Congrats and enjoy. NRB is a super color.
