Default 1610 finally home in Indy

Again, many thanks to Mike Furman for making this dream a reality! The whole process was flawless with Mike arranging shipping and title work. If anyone has any doubts whether to buy from him, I highly recommend him to you. My car arrived Friday morning just in time for a few miles yesterday! An incredible car because of the M7

Remember the owner’s manual warns against using Track mode on the street. You mentioned Indy.. I drove I-65 through there to Chicago on way home from dealer (Columbus) with my ZTK.. I’ve never been on a worse stretch of highway in my life. I’ve heard from 6 Vette owners who have bent rims on that highway. Track mode is so stiff that potholes or expansion cracks can bend your rims. Most likely the rears. Nice car you have... just a thought to help keep it that way.

Great car, congratulations and enjoy it. Gives me hope that #1568 will arrive before long. You are fortunate to get anything from Furman, when I was placing my order in Dec. 2017, I was told they had no allocations left. Good luck!

Beautiful car- you can’t go wrong with red.
The M7 is a blast isn’t it!
Congratulations!

For sure. I'm not driving until the roads are fixed.
