Finalist 2020 C7 of the Year -- Unmodified

Default My very last mod on my very last Corvette!

Since I am a factory stock only guy I just added my final mod for my final Corvette that I hope to drive until I can't drive anymore.

Chevrolet Genuine factory accessory

Cargo area carpeted mat with Z06 logo.

Part#23409865. And for those who say you can never see inside someone's trunk well I can and that's all that counts. I am now officially modded out to the max.

Looks great! Nice ride, but never say "last one". You never know!

Honestly B&B it is unless I crash it up or it is a mechanical nightmare. I am 52 and took out a 5 year loan so at 57 when the loan is paid I don't want anymore payments after that.This is my 12th and really last for me. So I will be hanging out in the C7 section for a long long time after many of you guys go to the C8 and C9 section of the forum.

OF COURSE this will be your "final Corvette..."
We completely believe that one, Dave.

Really looks great Dave, I will probably be getting the GS version for my convertible.

Nice Dave. I'm picking up it's little brother tomorrow (GS)
Don't say last. I'm gonna be 64 in Jan.
When you retire you'll see things differently.
I've been retired for 11 yrs from FDNY and having a great time.

Dave, when you retire you will have all the time you need to mod that C-8 and you can drive it 7 days a week.

After the others have moved onto C8s and C9s, it'll be you and me in here for a while Dave! I'm younger than you, at 47, but my 2018 is probably going to be my last Corvette for a long while. My wife and I are retiring in 5 years (actually, 4 years and 8 months but who's counting?), so I want to make my C7 last a very long time!
