Default Picking up Corvette #36 tomorrow!

Well, I wanted a GS Coupe before I bought my '16 Stingray Convertible in October, but could not swing a deal that I was looking for. So, instead, I ended up getting a great deal on the Vert! Anyway, I really like the wide body of the GS and it's components over the Stingray vert! The dealer called me today with a really great offer for my trade and an extra $2000 bonus tag rebate This along with their discount and Corvette Loyalty let me trade for a really great price. Thanks Matt and Nate at Van Bortel Chevrolet!

Well done. I plan to make a trip up to Van Bortel this summer when I come up for the race at Watkins Glen. Your car is very nice. Enjoy.

Sharp looking corvette, I guess you don't need to deal with your convertible deck lid now.

very nice life is too short (i'm telling the guy who bought 36 vettes in his life?).

i wish chevy would just make one corvette. the widebody. to me the few grand lower price lures us too many times when 99.9% of us want the widebody.

and before anyone sites the bigger more expensive tires, we wouldn't know the difference if there wasn't an option lol..

nice move op. widebody completely different animal in terms of stance and presence.

Gary, Congrats on your WIDE BODY #3 C7 and COUNTING! I knew you would own another one before I got mine! I have been following your obsession since I joined the forum in 2005 and I ALWAYS mention you to my wife as example that their are guys out their that are waYYYYYYYYYYYYY worse than me when it comes to trading in their current Corvette. I am glad that you got what you want and keep going you can catch up to HARVEY GLUCK! AWESOME LOOKING GS!
