Default Finally, here she is!!

Monday 8/8 picked her up at the NCM. Great experience and I highly recommend it. Had an 800+ mile trip home to NJ so I installed expel trac wrap on the front. Glad I did. By the time I got home the front nose was covered ion bug splat, well worth the $72 investment. Car is awesome!! can't tell you all the rush it was ( though I am sure many already know)
NPP and MRC nice!! added plus in Eco mode already averaging 27MPG. As soon as I got on my local streets I switched it to sport mode....unbelievable. Here are some photosName:  DSCN0730.jpg

Love the hood, spoiler and mirror treatment. Wheels set the car off very nice. Very sharp car. Go Terps!

I honestly think that out of all the generations White looks best on the C7 than the other generations where I feel white looks bland. It must be all the Black accents on the C7 that go so well with white. Great ride enjoy!
