If I was interested in purchasing this car, I would not hesitate to contact the seller and ask for close up pics and what it is.

The shipping is from TX to NJ i agree it's expensive i am looking at other choices, as far as contacting the seller it's Carvana so it's mostly AI contact, their CS center is in Tempe AZ, there not setup to do additional pics, if you have an issue with something at delivery you can refuse on the spot, or keep it for the 7 day trial and if not satisfied then they come back and pick up.

Update,
Will never know what was up those side gills on the Blue i pictured above cause I purchased, a '15 NRB 2LT coupe with ZF1 option, just under 23,000 miles it's in near perfect shape interior & exterior too.
Had it at Chevy for an inspection everything looks good, only thing that they found is the EGR/EVA sensors are not ready yellow light on their scanner no codes though.
They told me to drive it and it should reset to ready status so will see after some miles, hoping it's not the gas filler neck leaking fumes causing the not ready.
I have till 3/15/25 on the 10 year extended coverage program Chevy initiated.
The battery is 2 years old and didn't pass their load test, when i got it home from the dealer i put on my C-Tek charger in de-sulfation mode, did that twice over 2 days and now all LED's light up on the charger, so hopefully now that I'll keep it on maintenance when I'm not using it I'll get a couple more years use.
The previous owner did some cosmetic mods but the rear taillight chrome bezels I'm debating to take those off, anyway having owned many Vettes before this is my first C7 Gen, and hoping to enjoy like i always have in the past, i took a quick pic not that great I'll do better next chance Thanks for everyone chiming in on that mystery above lol.

The "not ready" status is because the codes have been cleared. Possibly the battery was disconnected or went dead, (sounds like you had issues with it too). That's why they told you to drive it for a while. It takes some time and different driving conditions for the system to run it's tests and either pass or fail.
Hope your new C7 is a great car for you. It looks great.

Factory euro spec C7's have turn signal lights integrated in the side mirrors.

The European models also have headlight washers as clearly shown.
