Waiting For my C8!
Hi. I am a new member here. I bought a C5 in 1999 new and babied it until a few months ago. I sold it to my sister. It has only 20,000miles.
I decided to order a Loaded C8 - in September 2020. Unfortunately I am still waiting... and not sure how much longer. To add to my frustration, I realize my front lift and Z51 performance package will be increasing in value by a total of $1500,00!!! Oh well.. I really want this car and looking forward to it!
