New Vette, not new member
Sold the C6 a few weeks ago after searching for many months to find a C7 that checked all the boxes for me. I wanted Long Beach Red with Kalahari interior, 2LT or 3LT, preferably the latter because of the additional Kalahari dash and door panels. Had to have performance exhaust and magnetic ride.
I finally found the perfect car for me in Alabama belonging to a fellow forum member who was kind enough to hold it for me until I could get there to pick it up.
Attached is a picture of the wife preparing to take her to our kids house in Huntsville Al to wait out last weeks storms before driving her back to Texas. It was a great drive back to Texas, just hated tripling the mileage in just one trip. But I bought it to drive it.

Very nice and love that color. I’m going to move this over to the C7 General section for other C7 owners to enjoy.

Great color combo-very classy! --of course I am biased as I have a 15 vert with the crystal red tint and the Kalahari interior. Enjoy!!

Enjoy your new ride, and yes they are made to drive, not in garage on display just for you, share your ride with others to appreciate what you drive.
