I saw two C7 convertibles yesterday at Guaranty Chevrolet in Junction City, OR. A Lime Rock Green Premier Edition and an Artic White.

Kendall Chevrolet in Eugene had a Laguna Blue Premier Edition coupe the last time I was in there.

I had mine at the cars & coffee at the Tigard Starbucks this morning (Sequoia near Home Depot).

It received LOTS of attention - it was great

I saw that yellow one too and thought it looked good with the chrome wheels. I confess that Walter - despite what many of us think about him - has done a great job with the special things he's done, vis-a-vis the red striped wheels and the special interior. It will always be a special C7.

Of course Walter has always been kinda' "special" himself, right?

So good to see a lot of people come out of hibernation this week. Kudos to the E@RTC group. They really did things well, I thought, considering the overflow of entries.
