I guess I'll just have to suffer with the C5 for a couple of months.
Just about a twin of my '99 Mag Red. I liked the look, and stayed with the dark top on my 2016.

I'm so glad the timing of my purchase, and the LBR production aligned. While I truly liked the Vette in all colors, the LBR is the only one that grabbed me completely.

While I love my LBR Z51 I gotta tell you I like the Stingray without the rear spoiler on the back, makes the car flow and seem sleek to me.
Beautiful.

I have not posted to this thread for awhile, but I must say there are some fine looking cars here. Congrads to all the new owners. We had a safe and enjoyable trip in November from Canada to the Redwoods and on to Phoenix where my baby will winter. A couple shots from our voyage south. For me the Z51 spoiler was a must. Kinda like the three bears ...... this one's too big, this one's to small, this one is just right. But that's just me. Others will differ.

Looks like a great trip in a wonderful ride. I drove mine from Prescott to Napa along the Pacific Coast Highway and loved it. Hope the sun stays out here in the valley and warms up. I'm in Apache Junction for the winter. I agree with you on the Z51 spoiler.
Happy Holidays
