New C7 owner
Moving over to C7 Forum, sold my 1997 Sebring Silver C5 last week, and bought a 2018 Stingray in Black Rose Metallic. Attempted to post a picture but was unable to because image size was to large?

welcome to the C7 area of the forum. Post a pic as soon as you figure it out. That is kind of a rare color.

First, welcome to the C7 club.
It's a beautiful color for your C7 . Congratulations..
Here's a few suggestions of aftermarket items you should consider for your new Corvette:
1) Range Device
2) CTEK Battery Tender
3) Forgeline Forged Wheels (if you have a GS or Z06)
4) Faraday pouches for your key fobs
5) Jack Pucks
6) SOLER Throttle Controller
7) PPF (save up for this, can be costly)
I have bought all of these and highly recommend them. Also, go to your Chevrolet service dept and get a VIS report so you know how the vehicle was maintained (related to TSBs, such as triple flush, etc.)

Congrats on your C7 and great color choice. I too went from a C5 to the C7 and do not regret it one bit.
