Default Back in a Corvette
Back in a Corvette. Picked up this 2017 Grand Sport heritage edition last night. Digging it so far. This is my 8th corvette but first C7, I’ve had 3 C6 Z06’s, 2 C5 Z06’s and a C3 over the years (I’m 31 lol). In the process of selling my 775rwhp 2013 CTS-V so I can start this project.

Your first C7 among a host of C6, C5 and C3 Corvettes. How, in your experience, does the C7 compare? Pros Cons? It's a beautiful car you have. Congrats.

That’s a nice looking GS! If I buy a GS, it’s going to look just like that one.
