Hello from Upstate NY
Greetings from upstate NY! After years of euro sports car ownership and frustration with parts availability/serviceability with those I finally made the jump to get a '17 GS M7 with Z07 and comp seats last week. Goal is getting as close to supercar handling for my weekend canyon carving as possible, but able to drive on long trips/put stuff in and be super comfy. Already put 1000 miles on the car and absolutely love it!
FYI if anyone has a transparent roof laying around I'm interested, its the only part of my perfect Corvette vision that my car does not have.
If anyone is around the area (Rochester/Syracuse/Utica/Albany) feel free to reach out. Speaking of that - how can I PM on here? Trying to buy some stuff in the classifieds.

Welcome to the Forum, and congratulations on your C7 GS! 
It takes a little time and/or a few posts to be eligible for PMs. Not sure of the number but not terribly high.
For now, you might put a note on the "For Sale" listing stating that you are interested, that you cannot PM yet, and provide your email or text info for the seller to use to contact you.

Welcome to the forum. I have seen a few threads in the C7 Parts for Sale section offering transparent tops - not sure if there are any in your area but worth posting a wanted to buy thread. I just recently purchased a transparent top - had to travel a bit and the seller was willing to meet me half way, but the trip was worth it.
