Default Finally it's home!!!

Well I am officially no longer Vetteless!!!

My new 2017 ZO6 with the 3lz Spice Red design package and CCB's is officially home washed and in my garage, come on guys it's 4:28 am, so don't say I should be driving. Hell, I should be sleeping

I got a very fair price from Al and Scott at George Mattick Chevrolet in Michigan. They were very professional and were great to deal with. They also set up transport for me with a company called Reliable. The entire process was very easy, I did have to wait a few weeks to get the car, but that was clear up front. The transport company had a giant enclosed 18 wheeler.

I'm trying to put together a video of the delivery. So hopefully I will be able to share some of what I recorded. Stay tuned.......for now
, here's a photo from the garage

I just got my 2017 1LZ last march. I picked mine up and drove it home. Isn't it the best feeling taking delivery of a car like that.

Looks great. Love that LBR. Congrats! BTW, posting at 4:37 AM tells me you're not the least bit excited about the car.

Congrats! As you might imagine I love the color combo, especially with light colored wheels rather than black. --Bob

Awesome! Now put a beam or 2 in and get rid of the garage posts.

(I had had them and hated them so I put ceiling beams in.
Which are surprisingly easy!)
Sweet and we know you saved a ton on a 2017 which are great cars.
I love my 2017!

We all remember little or no sleep the night before we got the car!
