Default C8 showing

Joe Basil Chevy in buffalo today had a showing of the new C8. I live in Liverpool ny so it was a 2 hr ride. Worth the time and gas. My order went in October.and I'm glad I got to see one in person. VERY impressive ! Pics don't do It justice. It just a joy to look at . The lines are very smooth looking with the short snout and massive *** end. This car was that sea something orange (whatever) the cabin well done except the council height. I'm short but it's like sitting in a cockpit . Tight. The top was off and I'm wondering what it's going to feel like. A lot of things you can discuss good n bad. They have a winner. My worse feeling is giving up that 150 hp and torque . We shall see

I was going to go, but I called ahead and found out it was the Orange. I live in Cicero and had already seen the Orange at Hendricks Chevy in NC when I went to visit my son. I was wowed by the Orange color as the photos did it no justice. I am still waiting to order my vert and I am told the earliest is mid Jan. We will see.
