Default Here She Is

Mentioned in a couple threads that I have learned a great deal so far about the Corvette and used that knowledge to aid in my on-going search for a C7. Couldn't find anything locally, but through several nationwide searches found one in my long-time home, the State of Texas. Very good seller that put up with all my requests for pics and documentation on his 2019 Black C7 GS M7 2LT with Kooks Headers and X-Pipe w/ High Flow Cats, AFE CAI and Ceramic Coating. She currently sits on Toyo Proxes tires, but included were the Michelin Power Sports which I may use on the front if I can't take the noise of the Toyos. The car had a very unmolested 14,600 miles on it. We agreed on a price and after the financial transaction was complete was able to get transport arranged through Montway this past Thursday and took delivery today. Still have a whole lot to learn, but thanks again for all the information on this forum. Here are a few pics right off the truck. Since I am waiting on the registration documents I am going to install a few accessories (LED interior lights, radar detector with mirror mount, WeatherTech floor liners) and battery tender. Stay tuned for further updates and more pics.

Congratulations on the GS. I’m not sure that I would put 2 completely different tires on the front. It may cause a handling issue.
