Default The wait is over




After putting my order back in 12/2017, my SO ZR1 was finally delivered to Van Bortel today. Beyond excited. My previous corvette was a C6 Z06 which I traded in last week. It was a pleasure to work with Matt, through out this process; courteous, constant updates and very knowledgeable on the ordering process. The car is awaiting PDI and then is being shipped to me. In the interim while the car is still at the dealer, I will be installing the GM performance intake and I have the Michelin Sport Cup 2 swap out to the Pilot Super Sport. If anyone is interested, send me a PM as I will be putting the SC2 up for sale once I received the car. Here are some picks from delivery today.

Congrats on your new car, I understand the wait after waiting 364 days from order until receiving the car, I think you will be pleased.

Congratulations. The paint looks perfect and so does the fit of the fenders, hood etc. What are the options?
Enjoy

The dealer indicated it he fit and finish looks good. Can’t wait to see in person. Ordered the 3ZR, ZTK, SO package with 7 speed manual.

Car looks great! After seeing your user name and avatar, I thought for sure the car would be black but oh well. Still looks fantastic. Congrats!
