It is here

Well they dropped off my car yesterday at around 1pm. I did not have a lot of time to play with it, but I have to say I am very impressed. This comes from a guy who has owned 40 Porsche's 39 BMW's 4 Ferrari's ,3 Maserati's and a Lamborghini (some of those cars are still in my garages). I am not really a tech guy (I'm no spring chicken and never made it past the 8th grade), but I was able to get the Apple car play thing working. It will probably be going into the garage soon with the rest of the summer cars, but I am very glad to be a corvette owner once again.

Seems like maybe you could afford a place in FL for your summer cars? :>)

I love having my C7 in FL all winter--much better than under a cover in my garage up north.

Anyway, glad you like your Corvette so far. It is beautiful. You will LOVE this car!

Nice ride, white was the most popular color in 2015. Welcome to America's Sports Car Club. The C-7 is an amazing car.

I still have a couple of Porsche's and couple BMW's my favorite would probably be my 06 430 gearshift coupe. I started things late did not get married till I was is my forties so after divorce got 50/50 custody of my twin boys so not going anywhere for another 7 years. My car urges faded a bit when I started writing novels. working on # 4 now. My last Bette was a 07 Lmb Z06
