So much for break in. 90 MPH was like 40 and the car was extremely quiet compared to the 2017 convertible. It is uncanny how I came about this vehicle. Everyday, I would search the ads on Carguru, AutoTrader and others and my limit was not to pay over MSRP. This car popped up on AutoTrader on Monday and had a discount added, strange, but I called to see if available or a tease. Salesman said that it wasn't spoken for, but would check. Nope, car was available and due in next week. Confirmed the price, yes MSRP with the discount. However, they wouldn't give me what I thought my car was worth and said thanks, but no thanks. Later in the evening, the salesman sends me a picture of the car as it just arrived at the dealership. So, I call back, he says he made a mistake, no discount. I say add the discount into my trade and give me another grand and it is a deal. Remember Monday was the end of the month. He came back, DONE. Ended up we were within a grand of my offer. The car was exactly what I was looking for, it was immediately available and I made enough in the market for the day that a grand wasn't a factor. Picked the car up at the dealer, wham, bam and on the road. The bulge in the hood, I didn't even think about it the whole day, was like it wasn't even there, no problems with visibility as well as the wing. My only complaint is the seat needs to be an inch wider on both sides for my fat ***. Beautiful car, didn't think we were going to get out of the parking lot with everyone and their dog wanting to take a look. Getting the car was just a fluke, right place, right time I guess. I did check with Corvette World in Dallas and I came out to the good on the trade, plus saving on sales tax.
