Nice Ride 09-21-2017 10:29 AM

Hate to leave good company on C7 forum but
 
I traded my 2015 C7 Z51 A8 on a 2013 427 4lt 505HP, 60th Anniversary Vert. Car is one of 113 so ordered. All the right stuff! An elderly gentleman purchased the car late 2012 and drove less than 500 miles per year. Kept it garaged, covered and never seen rain. Including the drive home the car currently has 2514 miles on it. Same dealer who ordered the car and serviced it got it back on a Cadillac trade. Dealer provided documented history, service records and Certified the car. This unique Corvette is my 6th. Absolutely no interest in a mid engine Corvette so at this stage of Corvette life I was very happy to find this keeper 427. I will be moving to the C6 forum but wanted to thank everyone for their comments and tips about C7.

Sounds like a great find! :thumbs:

Yet another example of someone buying a car and saving it for the next owner. Sad in a way, but you get the benefit from his OCD-ness.

Well, congrats to you and happy motoring to you as well. Sounds like a wonderful ride.

Rather hear that any day than going to a Dodge,Benz,BMW Porsche ETC. No intrest in a C7 Z06 before you traded your C7 Stingray Z51?Good luck with your 427!:thumbs::thumbs::rock::cheers::flag:

Wow - nice find!!! :thumbs:

Unfortunately, not a lot going on in the C-6 section so I can almost guarantee you will be in the 7 more often than not. As am I. And best of luck with that 4-2-7!!

owc6 09-21-2017 12:35 PM

Congrats! I'll see you in C6 forum. :)

jimmyb 09-21-2017 12:58 PM

We'll miss you. BTW, there's a couple of C6 owners that NEED to go to the C6 forum....can you take them with you?:D

Great find, good luck with it. I'm sure we would all love to see a picture when you have a moment.

Avanti 09-21-2017 02:38 PM

One often cannot predict what they will do or get in the future, so you may be back sometime... ALL the best till then!!!

Yes, some are. Than there are those who are anxious about any stitch of new info coming from the vette world and those guys own ALL DIFFERENT YEARS. Fact is the newest info will pop up in the newest sub forum first so we're here to stay. Too many forget this is a CORVETTE forum and all (even foreign) car owners are welcome.

:cheers: Enjoy your new ride.

Congrats, OP. The 427 verts are cool rigs.

Drop a little coin and get the heads worked and enjoy it worry-free.

brooklync5 09-21-2017 09:33 PM

Sounds like a great car.... I could easily see going from the c7's drive train to a 427 but you are definitely going to miss the interior of the c7... either way enjoy the POWER!

Strake 09-21-2017 09:47 PM

Congrats !!!!! I really loved our 4LT 427 60th Anniv. Favorite thing was the fact that it was a one year wonder. Had to sell it at the time, and being a technology junkie, I wouldn't have kept it too long....... would have wanted a C7 which I'm thrilled with. Still miss the 427 somedays.

Enjoy !

When someone leaves there's always someone there to fill in your spot. Well today that's me! Monday my daughter and I flew from CT to Dallas to bring my new to me 2016 Z51 2LT home. 1675 miles of smiles! Sold the 2006 Z51 to someone in the neighborhood. Not sure if that's such a good move or not......
No Rules Ron, now on the C7 side!
