Default New but not really New

After almost a year of highjacking my husband’s profile, I decided to create my own.

It’s been four-weeks of total, dead silence from ordering dealership. Quoting ‘Soup N@zi’ from Seinfeld: “No soup for you!” However, Shane from NCM contacted us to say our Vette will be completed Monday, January 22nd! I have to say, they have been excellent communicators.

We are so grateful to everyone on this forum who have provided much needed information, tips, advice, and humor.

Welcome to the Forum for a "new but not really new member"!
Congratulations on your '18 Z06. Shame the dealer is not communicating better, but glad the NCM is keeping you updated. Looks like you all are full time travelers from your IATA codes (if that's what you're using).
