New Corvette Day

Last weekend I returned to Corvette World to buy this car but it was sold. Apparently the person buying it couldn't for whatever reason so they called me yesterday and I picked it up today. Pictures don't do justice to how beautiful this thing is in person. It's a 2015 (A8) Z51 2LT with 9300 miles on it and it looks brand new. All of the black trim, inserts, and mirrors are black but they have some kind of metal flake to it (looks pretty cool). I still need to get a clear bra and the front windows tinted but other than that it's pretty much ready to go.

I also bought the 3 year 60k bumper to bumper warranty without a deductible since the car is 5 years old. I bought my C6 from these guys and wasn't disappointed then either. Anyway here's a few pics.

Congrats! Comp Seats are great.

BTW, your metallic black trim is most likely Carbon Flash.

What is this aluminum canister? I noticed the hose wasn't snapped in so I snapped it in. I looked at the spec sheet from the dealer and it is showing Carbon Flash, Thanks.
