It’s nice but for that kind of money your starting to get into a nicely appointed C8 territory.

That is true regarding the price but for now, C8's may as well be made of "unobtainium".

That’s assuming he likes the new Style C8’s which I don’t care for yet. Nice ride and enjoy it.

Looks like I finally get to play. Picked this up last Saturday 6-12-21. '16 Z-51 2LT A8, Shark Gray/blk interior with just under 3K miles. Gotta love garage queens.

I think this is a great idea. Count me in with a 2015 DSOM ZO6 M7.

Mogul masher, that’s one beautiful DSOM convertible! I have to ask, do you take it to the mountains in the winter to go mash moguls? That would be the epitome of “I bought MY Corvette to drive, not to sit in my garage!”.
