Verts are THE BEST!! Some VERY good looking droptops showing up on this thread. Just a little tidbit here that the C7 vert has for it's distinction the RAREST of ALL C7's produced. The Atlantic Edition only 17 made! When this guy saw the car he said that Harland pulled one over on him. Guess who??

Well my ‘18 Vert finally arrived so I can now post a pic. Lighting wasn’t great but you get the idea. Long Beach Red with Kalahari top & interior.

Congratulations Don! That is a drop-dead gorgeous car! Hope you have a safe return trip! Tell Lori and Shane at the museum that Stan and Patti from NC say hi! Take tons of photos and get a phone-video of them driving your car out of the museum.

Don,
Enjoy the day! Nothing like the night before at the motel, knowing that you are going to walk in the door of the Museum the next morning and see your car for the first time on Corvette Blvd! Relish every moment, grab a cheeseburger and shake at the Cafe, and take some time to explore the museum. I can still remember mine like it was yesterday. I’ve been back to the museum for the Birthday Bash every year since. Hope to meet you there some year.

BJ

Beautiful car. Where did you order the Wheel? Looking for that but only in Blk leather vs Alcantara. Thanks

Me and my lovely bride at the Museum. What a day



outside my man cave. You can see now in the background from last week

Here's a photo or two of my new baby. Actually got to drive it yesterday after our 12" snowfall a week ago.
