Default Picked up my "Dark Knight" C7.R Saturday




What a fun car to drive....this forum helped me make up my mind... The zo6 Vette looks and performance is a great value. I have had 3 people come talk to me....a cart guy at home depot and others getting gas....i was blessed coming out of army to land a good job. Here are some pics, a tad dirty.... Was raining Saturday.... I'm really excited...i had match boxes of vettes as a child.

Love the suede and look of the seats. Black is an amazing color and that appears to be almost a mirror finish. The front hood...is that a decal of actual CF of the hood with the C7Jake painted in place???

I believe it is a exposed carbon fiber hood and roof with a decal placed on both the hood and again roof.

A showstopper no doubt. The yellow and black doesn't work for me for some reason though.

Nice color choice. I think it looks much better than the yellow painted combo.
