I keep mine in a climate controlled garage and never take it out in the rain, or sun, or when bugs are flying around at night.

Not the greatest paint job I've seen on a line of cars. Drive it and wash it when you remember to.

Protect ....never drive it. Otherwise, drive it and wash when dirty and wax when you feel like. Just like ANY OTHER CAR.

Drive it and don't worry about it. Because they are building so many of the C7's, the car value will never appreciate like other models.

First you have to own a Corvette than you can worry about paint protection.
