New C7 Edition

Our new C7 was delivered to our dealer late Wednesday afternoon. This will be the 19th Vette we have owned, but the very first one that we special ordered. We're trading the 99 coupe and the 06 vert, so we're downsizing from 5 to 4. Can't wait until Saturday to take delivery. I probably won't get to drive it right away because this one is slated to be my wife's car.

Very nice, congrats! With 18 Vettes under your belt I'll be curious to hear your impressions!

Congrats to the wife. I sure you will probably get to drive it from time to time if you're a good boy.

The good news is that my 14 will now become my daily driver during the season.

I see the wife in here under her stuff saying her husband got her a new c7. But NO ONE was ever going to drive it but her.

But you see, now I have the 14 to myself AND the 60! It only cost me another $80k or so! 👍

Currently have a 14 Z51 coupe. I am very impressed with the C7. I favor the C1 and C2, but anything before the C7 cannot compare to the styling and comfort of the new generation. Simply put, the best Vette ever.
