Default New 2017 C7 Black Z06

I ordered a 2017 M7 C7 Z06 from Mike Furman, Criswell Chevrolet on 1/10/17, it rolled off the assembly line on 2/14/17, we did the Museum Delivery on Monday 2/27/17.

What an experience, Mike was terrific, made the whole process very seamless.

Options: 3LZ, Carbon Fiber Dash, Chrome Wheels, Suede Insert Seats

No, it is being transported by Intercity. I did not want to put around 2000 miles on it just to bring it home, plus winter, plus I am going to have SunTek Thin Film put on nose and rear quarter panels, and will be adding ACS Splash Guards.

Congrats.

beautiful classic look.

smart move get the sides and nose protected before you put any miles on it. Then drive the heck out of it!

I concur with both posts that driving it home to CA, in winter from the NCM in winter, was a poor choice for me. We brought, our near twin to yours, home on 2/24/15 but our clue should have been the 14" of snow on the ground in BG.

Congrats. Beautiful Z06. Regarding Intercity Transport, did they pick up the car at the Bowling Green Plant/Museum? Did the Museum coordinate the transport or did you?

Museum Delivery was an over the top experience. The Museum Delivery Personnel have Customer Service down to a Tee. Can not say enough good things about the whole experience.

I coordinated with Matt at Intercity Transport and with Shane at the Museum. The pick up window is tight because other cars are there to be delivered and the museum needs the space. Because of that it cost a little more, Intercity needed to schedule around my pickup time. Both Matt and Shane were very good to work with, it will be picked up early next week. I will probably have it the week of 3/13/17, it's a very long wait but worth it.
