Yeah, it's not even built yet. However, when I go to B G to pick it up next month, I will have the factory splash guards, cargo divider from Exotic Vette and, the top bag for the second top in the trunk of the rental car. Still waiting for the wifey to make good on her promise to move back to her mother's if I bought another C7..................

Kind of funny. When I bought the '15 just prior to the bash, she threatened to move out. Never did happen. When I ordered this one she as much told me the same. With any luck she will make the move whise I'm in B G next month picking up the car ...................

It's fun to order early Christmas presents. You should also order some Lloyd mats, the ones that come with the car are very thin and look cheap. I ordered the Lloyds with two logos, look great.

Already taken care of. I reside on what's left of my s/o's parents old farm. Needless to say, all our cars have Weather Tech floor mats.
