Congrats! SG is a nice color. I'm still waiting for mine, but with all the snow in BG, it doesn't look like Jack Cooper will be operating for a couple of days.

Mine came into Orlando this morning. The aero parts are shipped seperately, and of course no invoice.

Thats strange all our m7 cars had the aero packed nicely inside. That would make for a extended time on delivery i would think. Hope not. Congrats.

Congrats- like the color combo's. Is it going home tomorrow also? We were probably on the same transport. Mine was unloaded around nine am. They all take a good picture, but surprising look even better in person. The quality of the build is awesome.

The dealership showed me the GM bulletin that stated the new procedure with the aero parts shipping seperatly. They mentioned that verts. with the aero package always did come separate, now it's coupes and verts.

Well worth the wait! You will be very pleasantly surprised at the quality,fit and finish. For me it has been quite a length of time in buying a Vette.

Kerbeck as of this morning had no invoices which as they explain to me it's still GM's car, plus the aero parts are shipped seperatly are not here. So I'm thinking later in the week.The tech. has the car up on the lift until the paper work and parts show up, and he's not going to do anything unless I'm there. Keith Cummings is one cool Corvette Tech.

The way GM works sometimes is a real mystery. But on the other hand I see that they now have the rear camera covered by clear plastic so the truckers and such can use the camera when the car is covered.
