Default Getting ready to pull trigger🤔

So I'm getting ready to order 2018 3LZ Z06. I'm just deciding on either white with blue stitching interior with suede. Or Admiral blue with yellow stitching and suede interior. So far I have two dealers that will do 11% no dealer fee. Yes obviously I have to pay the courtesy delivery fee. Has anyone got any better than this number?

Neither...go with Admiral Blue, but unless you are a University of Michigan alum, go with RED stitching

The more you wait for a better deal, the less you'll have enjoying your vette. There will always be a better deal, but what's most important, is if you're happy with the current deal.

Also, you'll be driving it, so get what colors combo you like. If you like adblue with yellow, go for it!

My only fear is ordering it and my car don't sell. I'm torn between both colors. I love the blue stitching but that won't look right with the blue outside. Decisions. Lol.

What do you mean overdoing it and your car don't sell?

Are you currently selling another vehicle to fund the purchase of the z?

Tough decision between the colors! I would be leaning more towards the white. It could just be me, but I think the white looks more exotic.

Oh. Well, that's a pickle. It's a good deal, but if I was in you're shoes, I would sell/close the deal on the Porsche and then set your sights on and order the z.

That would suck ordering the z, getting all excited and the Porsche doesn't sell when it comes time to close the deal on the z.

I wouldn't want to get caught in that situation. Sure the P car will sell but if you're under pressure to sell -- at what price.
