Default Just bought a new Grand Sport




2019 1LT 7M
Back in September I made the stupid mistake of going "halves" with my GF on a '19 Stingray Convertible. This is something I have never done before. At the time I guess it was a way of me getting a new Corvette for a really low payment. Fast forward to now and she claims it doesn't feel like her car and would like her money (down payment) back! So, I sold it back to the dealer that I purchased it from and gave her back the bulk of her down payment from the equity in the car. I used the car as a trade on the 1LT 7M GS Coupe. Got a real good discount and the $3000 Corvette Loyalty rebate. This should hold me over until the C8 comes out!

Nice car, I'm biased to the red striped wheels, they look great. You'll love the Grand Sport!

Congrats on the new buggy! Very nice combination.

I just traded my 16 Z51 for a new 19 GS. Picked it up on Tuesday and am putting my 500 miles on it so I can change oil before my son and I head to Bowling Green for the festivities at the end of the month. Love everything about it.
