First time corvette owner in ND
Hi all. First time vette owner. I picked up a 2014 1LT with 5200 miles. Had it for 2 weeks and took it in for a oil change today and it turns out it was the 51st one made in 14 and the guys at the dealer said it was a gm exec car or something like that. Looks like he had a spoiler added and a decal kit. The stingray, lower rear bumber, hood louver, front/rear louvers are painted as well. Driving back from grand forks doing 77mph i got 34-35mpg in eco mode. That was surprising. I really like the car. Ever since the c7s came out i have been wanting one. So got rid of the mustang. Maybe one day ill get a c7z. Im also in minot north dakota. Anyone else up in this area.
