Christmas Raffle Giveaway
I was fortunate to be a winner of a new C8 at the Corvette Museum raffle that was held back in September. I still can't believe it. I celebrated by purchasing a C8 sweatshirt, from the museum, the same day I won and kept it for my delivery day which is this Thursday. I tried it on tonight and unfortunately it is too big and my return date has passed. I would like to put it up for a Christmas giveaway. It is a size large. Just drop a comment below and you will be entered. I will draw a random number on Friday and then PM the lucky winner to get your address to mail it out. Good luck to all and happy holidays to you and your families. For those that have asked for more details, I will post pics over the weekend and answer any questions you may have.

|
Congratulations on your Museum win….enjoy….
Count me in on the sweatshirt. Thanks |
Congrats! Please add me to your list.

Very nice of you, and congrats on the win HOLY SHEET !!!!

@golddog Dont forget to set aside $$ for potential taxes. IIRC large value/cash wins in lotteries/raffles are subject to taxes. Specifics I'm not 100% certain on but you dont want a nasty surprise if the IRS audits you for not claiming the C8 win.
Still 100% worth keeping the car. The taxes would be far less than buying one. Edit: a cursory examination is that the federal tax burden on "gambling winnings" (including raffles like this) is 25% of the fair market value. To be on the safe side I'd calculate the exact MSRP of a car identical to the one you won, and set aside 25% of that value just in case. It may get more convoluted if it somehow bumps you into a higher tax bracket. Thats where I start to get lost... Or just dont report it on your taxes and roll the dice on the audit (maybe pay for audit protection just in case lol). |
Very nice!!! Please count me in......
|
Count me in. That is very kind of you. Nice to see a member win. I purchase often (it's for a good cause obviously) but never knew anyone who won
|
Count me in! Thank You
|
Looks like a Mist Red to match my 23, win or lose either way a good looking sweatshirt.
|
Large would be perfect. I will PM you my address :thumbs:
|
Late congrats on the raffle and a great gesture with this giveaway. Hoodie looks nice, and I'm all for it!
|
Congrats on the big win! I'm a Large!
|
I'm in. Thanks for your generosity and congrats.
|
I'm in.
|
That’s fantastic, both the win and the paying it forward. I don’t need to be part of the raffle but just wanted to drop a note to congratulate you and thank you for doing a nice thing.
|
Congrats I am in.
|
Sure you don’t want to give away the C8 :)
Count me in as well!!!!! |

Been there, done that. |

No worries. The museum won't let you take the car until you wire them the required 25%. Also, you have to pay your states sales tax ahead of time.

Come on, man... Asking if you were "scammed" by someone offering to give something away for free? What even would you have been scammed out of, the 2 seconds it took you to reply and say "I'm in" or something? Such a weird post, even if you didn't completely miss the post where the winner was announced.

Count me in, Have someone copy / record the live stream when you are doing the Museum pickup .
|
Ok, wrong word. I only looked at the first post above and since they asked to get in the drawing ASSUMED it wasn’t drawn. Let it go man, didn’t mean anything by it.
|
Matches my car! Thanks for doing a nice giveaway for X-Mas!
|
Very nice of the OP to do something like this - I'm sure the winner really appreciates the shirt.
