Default New C7 owner!!!!

Just traded in my 2010 GS for this beautiful 2019 GS A8 1LT!!!! I知 super stoked!!!! After 39 yrs, I finally have a brand new car that I知 the primary driver of lol!

I wanna say thank you to everyone who contributes on these boards as yalls posts were extremely helpful and insightful with what to expect with the C7 (bent/cracked rims, the wobble from the TC, and the paint chipping which mine had). Much appreciated y誕ll!

Man is that pretty. I know the feeling of my first Corvette too--it's great! My best advice (which I did not really follow, obviously, is to try your best not to read the doom and gloom threads. They can take a lot of fun out of it if you let them. Just traded in my 2016 A8 after 3 years and 20K miles, with only 3 oil changes on my service record. You might hang out over on the Off Topic forum. The Random gif thread takes your mind off things a lot . . .

Congrats! I did the same thing about 5 weeks ago and sold my C5, thought I would really miss it but with this car I keep going out and looking and still can't believe I won it!
Get ready for a trip back to the dealer for that free 500 mile break-in oil change, it will come up fast........
