Hi Guys,

I'm back officially as a vet owner! I just bought my 4th vet and 3rd one from MacMulkin. I love those guys!

Now I have the crazy feeling of days becoming longer, seconds ticking slower, and time pretty much standing still. The car is being shipped from MacMulkin to my house in CO. Just got off the phone with intercity and it sounds like it will be shipped sometime next week. I guess that's okay given we just got about 18" of snow yesterday.

I am really excited about this car. I've been nervous about fitting given I'm 6'7" but I'll make it work. Who needs seats. I'll be needing a few days of PTO for when the car gets here.

I got a 2Lt z51 Arctic white with adrenaline red. They had one exactly how I wanted it. Dual roof package and all.

I'll post more pictures once I get the car and get some nicer ones.

Congrats! If it's any consolation, you'll get yours before I get mine, which is scheduled to be built late next week.

Great choice they are the best. I have bought 5 new vehicles from them in nine years including 3 new vettes and 2 caddys. The easiest car buying experience you will ever have. By the way you can keep the snow.

Worse case scenario, you take the roof off to give you enough headroom and just drive it in nice weather. It is that good of a car and sacrifices may need to be made. (lol)

Seriously, you will love this car and will fit with the roof on. Hope the time passes quickly for you.
