Like most of us, I started this process in Oct of 2019. Today, my new 2021 C8 coupe (Elkhart Lake Blue in honor of my state's race course) with Edge Red calipers & engine cover, Z51, LT3. I cannot wait. I pick it up Saturday at 10 AM.

Congrats! The wait until Saturday will feel just as long as the October 2019 start. Hope to see pictures here. Beautiful color combo you have picked.

Congratulations on your journey. You'll soon see as other have said that was worth the wait and your patience will be rewarded by having an absolutely great car. If you're like be it will be months before you stop smiling every time you think of her or see her in the garage. Enjoy your car and please share photos
