Default 2019 Stingray

I’m getting ready to order my very first corvette - a 2019 admiral blue stingray with black interior and chrome wheels. Anyone else own a 2019 model yet? I’m excited!

Very exciting! How long have you had to wait for it after ordering it?

I have a 19 Stingray in Sebring Orange.
Ordered at end of January and took delivery at end of March.

Congrats on the Vette. Make sure to post pics.

Ordered it 3 weeks ago. It was built 2 weeks ago (Apr 17th), but somehow wasn't shipped to the dealer last week - So I'm expecting it to be shipped this week!

Congratulations. Good choice of color. I believe that Admiral Blue is being discontinued so you better get your order in quickly. The last order date for AB is June 28th. :-)

I got lucky. The exact car I wanted was already on Kerbeck's order sheet, so I didn't have to custom order it.

Congrats all! Mine has been ordered and museum delivery scheduled for June. I can’t wait! Until then I’ve been living on this forum, buying too many accessories, and living vicariously thru others here.

You can't go wrong buying a new C7 Corvette. Most of us here did just that.

There's photos of the new Elkhart blue. It's a lot more like Laguna Blue than Admiral. Check it out and order which ever you like best.

I like both, but the darker blue is what I’d like. I guess the new color doesn’t come out until October though
