This Beauty just arrived at Matick on the East side and no it's not mine I wish The lucky owner is one of my Good Friends who has been in line for this for a long time, congrats Bill
All of you DO realize that the "wheels" debate will go on forever. So getting mad and cussing at each other serves NO PURPOSE.
Also, the debate about small wing/big wing is basically the same thing.
And by the way, everyone's expressing extreme displeasure about the big wing WILL NOT CHANGE ANYONE ELSE'S MIND......some of you act like if you bitch and moan enough about the "ugly big wing", others will think like you....it's not going to happen!!!
In fact, it puts a negative taste in people's mouths....and all the negativity is a huge turnoff.
Simply state your position (without whining) on whatever you want to.....and just leave it there.

The chrome wheels should NOT continue at the ZR-1 level !! This isn't a cars n coffee/show n shine waxers seniors Corvette. This is why that stigma remains.
Otherwise congrats. Looks sweet! Wheel design is fantastic though!

Of course you would at 58.
This car is not made for you. Graphite wheels and the lower wing for street. This with the high wing will be an absolute killer track rat in the right hands. What the CAR was built for.

If you have the right eyes. You will see exotica in the front nose.
Yeah this looks like a 300K supercar taking a corner. That's what I see.

I bet it won't be mistaken for a base model Camaro or anything other than the production beast it is. Pregnant looking or not, it's fantastic and I will be ordering this exact color when my allocation comes up. Bet you don't like the wheels either? To each his own. If you haven't anything good to say, especially about what someone else obviously cares for a lot, then ............................... you know the cliche.

The owner posted a pic on facebook and it made up my mind on my ZR1 order color selection. Thank you for the pics.

Here we go again. Attack chrome wheels. Nonsense. Should not continue? Stigma? There's no chrome "stigma."Just an opinion. Many others have opposing views. I don't understand all the hostile comments about "shine waxers seniors Corvette" These are persons who share a passion for Corvettes. Issues?

Why? Are you paying the $2K for them?

Yup. I see the plastic wrap protecting the CF in the back of the hatch. I am interested in seeing the car prepped too.

Really shouldn't be available at any level of C7. Hopefully it doesn't continue on the C8 but I doubt it this rate. Have to keep the waxers happy.
Sooooooooooooo our Z06s look like cheap non pregnant base model Camaros?
Nope. My C7 Z06 still looks better than my Gen6 ZL1. No way does a C7 ZR1 look anything like any model Camaro or any other "pregnant" looking car for that matter. Those opinions are like '$$H0le*, everyone has one. Comments like that about the greatest production Corvette to date are not very well thought out or accurate.

DITTO! Not to mention having a lack of communication skills other than to criticize the choices of others, believe everything posted on the internet and a terminal case "Class" envy for people and things they don't understand or like. Thanks for saying exactly what I was thinking and didn't have the guts to say in this forum.

Hey man. I'm late 40's . Didn't mean to come across the way you think but you said the stereo typical comments that have been uttered for decades. Like the chrome and NO wing. You just took the "RACE" out of the race car. Just saying there wouldn't be another company building a car like this with a chrome wheel option. I look at anything European. That's GM's problem. Leave the chrome for the stingrays and even Z06s. Not the ZR1. Hey I agree with you about the 35 and under. A lot are not in to these kind of cars. Electric or bus, tree huggers. Their i phone is their sports car. Well the hipsters anyway. lol... Sad world we are in.

I didn't post for yet another Chrome vs Black debacle. If I want my car to be a cars and coffee Waxrrr you are Not making the payments.
Oh look- my WAXRRRs at a CnC, Z with black rims (notice the plate), ZR with Chromes The yellow Z to the right with Black belongs to the new ZR owner. Go figure, we both have both chrome and black.

Chrome normally goes with the Dome if you know what I mean??
Kinda' like black lifeless empty wheel wells "normally" go with the dark lifeless empty space between the ears in the heads of those who have them? Know what I mean?
It is my opinion that black/dark wheels are for those unwilling to make the effort to clean the brake dust from them. Second, wheel finish has absolutely no effect on the performance of any car. Third, book values for "chrome wheel" options add residual value to any car available with that option. That only leaves personal preference or taste which has no valid link to the age of the owner or the state of their hair follicle pattern.
