Picked up new C7 yesterday
Hello CF's,
First time Corvette owner here...
Bought a new Black on Black 2016 Z51 1LT 7-speed yesterday at Pohanka Chevrolet in Virginia. It had been on the lot for 240-ish days (sales guys say the manual trans cars don't sell as quick due to all the traffic in the DC area)...
Anyway, I look forward to getting to know the car better and likely some sort of forced induction in the future. (also have a LS powered turbo charged 71 240z)...
Regards,
Mike
