Greetings from Atlanta!
Introducing myself, finally. Regular reader here for quite some time, just haven't taken time to post.
I purchased my 2017 C7 last November after a long search of dealers' inventories nationwide. It's a 1LT Stingray coupe, 7MT, NPP, in Admiral Blue with gray interior. My first Corvette! Apparently pretty rare, as it was hard to find. I had decided to order one when I found this one only a 3-hour drive away, and was able to take advantage of discounts and incentives while getting exactly what I wanted.
Mine is a fair-weather daily driver, and so far I've put on just over 3k miles, and enjoyed every one - even in Atlanta traffic!
Here's a photo on delivery day:
