Default New 2016 Silver Stingray

Hello all! Just picked up a 2016 C7 on Tuesday for a killer deal, almost feels surreal that I'm driving something this incredible. First thing I did was drive it down to a tire shop and get some Michelin Pilot AS3+ tires put on there, since I plan on driving it until it gets warmer (not in snow of course, that's the subie' job). She has the 2lt package with magride and active exhaust, I chose this over a z51 since I don't plan on ever going to the track, and I don't regret it one bit!

Welcome to the forum!

Congrats. on the C7 coupe, great color combination!

Great pricing now on the remaining '16's, and you made your purchase from a great dealer in the Motor City area.
