And Connell Chevrolet in Costa Mesa, CA has the market cornered, still sitting on 8 brand new GSCE's.
I was at Connell last month for oil change and they have about ten C7 on the lot/show room. None were GSCE. Not sure how they're going to sell them if they don't display out in the front. Either that or their inventory is not correct.

There is still a nicely equipped coupe at Kelowna Chevrolet in BC, Canada. Not sure of the VIN but it is on sale for $101,236 Canadian (approx $80,900 US)

Yea, I can only go based on what I see on dealer websites. I'm thinking some dealers may keep stuff up even though it is sold, just to draw people to their website.

Would be cool if someone could verify, go by the dealer and ask them, tell them they show on their website. They currently show 19 2017 C7's and 8 of them are GSCE's, seems a little strange.

I haven't driven my Carbon since mid December 2014. On the 28th of December 2014 I was admitted to the hospital with weakness in my legs. Forty-eight hours later, I was paralyzed from my toes to shoulders (C3 - C7) was the primary damage.

The cause was never determined.

The name they attached to my condition is Transvers Myelitis. For a short period of time, about three days I thought there must be a cure. The only cure, with no percentage of total recovery is therapy. I started my Occupational Therapy (OT) & Physical Therapy (PT) 16 January 2015. I have out patient PT three times a week for one hour sessions.
During the past few months I have been able to get into the passenger seat for a ride along when my friends take it out for a spin (wife can't drive a stick).
My goal is to get in the drivers seat, currently I don't have enough feeling in my feet.

I will never give up!!
Back from Daytona, race was disappointing. It was great to take the GSCE, with a slight mod. I was just the back seat driver. Easy to remove the chair and carrier with hitch, reinstall the plate. The GSCE is back to basic's. Overall weight is 98 lbs.

In case you ever wondered how our cars would look with a 4X4 lift kit.

Took my own photos and made it in Photoshop. Printed at Costco on their metal prints. Not bad for an amateur in my view.

Maybe you all were already aware, but interesting photo in a thread about the Spring Mountain course. Looks like they have a CE in their lineup as well:

I’ve seen a few when I was there. Although this pic is of the same one.

Yes, covered a ways back in this thread. When I was there I pulled the VIN's on both, they are both noted in the registry. #'s 861 and 876. They will be some very well maintained used vehicles before too long...

Here's a picture of the two of them parked together when I was there for my 2 days....

Both are M7 / Z07 with Comp Seats and Visible Carbon Fiber GFX packages.

Here's the progress on the decals. About 95% complete just have to make some final touches to make them perfect. Color matched vinyl comes in today. Should be able to start cutting on Thursday.

I use the white for mock-ups because I have so much of it and it's one of the least colors used.
