Default Brought my new Z06 home this afternoon

Just brought my new 2016 Long Beach Red Z06 home today. Traded in my 2006 Z06. That was a great car. This one should be a blast. I've had 30 or so Corvettes over the years and this one is a handful. I went with the 7 speed manual. Need to get up to speed on all the bells and whistles. Love this color Paul Masse Chevrolet in Providence, RI treated me very well

Very nice.

That might be the nicest looking Chevrolet dealership I've ever seen.

It's an absolutely beautiful dealership. They keep the Vettes inside so they don't get that acid rain on them. They were great to deal with. They are having a big event there this Saturday. Free barbecue too. I think I know what I'm driving.

I wish my garage had the space that dealership does.

Superb dealership and management. Bought mine there as well -- not even a hint of any issue with them. Treat customers and potential customers exceedingly well. Yes, big Corvette event there this coming Saturday. Little state; big dealership. Tremendous number of car crazy guys in RI.

They are top shelf and treated me extremely well. Paul Masse even took the time to congratulate me. Total class act. I would recommend them to everybody. Paul Dragich, my salesman was a real gentleman

Mike, thanks for letting me get up close and personal with your Z. That sealed the deal for me. I fit fine in the new one. See you at the show Saturday
