Its finally here! First Vette! 2019 GS
Well I finally picked it up yesterday, great day for it, Spring is finally here. Traffic was god awful but I got to drive it close to 200km to get a feel for it and I love it. I traded in my 2016 V6 Camaro on the Corvette and it feels a lot different, in a good way. Prior to driving it home I had never driven a C7 yet so it was quite exciting!
I couldn't find the interior I wanted anywhere and ended up ordering the car. Went with a couple options:
-2LT
-Torch Red
-Adrenaline Red Two Tone Interior
-Carbon Fibre Instrument Panel
-Black Satin wheels with Red Stripe
-Transparent roof
-Carbon Flash Stinger Stripe
-Carbon Flash emblems and mirrors
My only gripes with the car are that the Camera resolution and the infotainment system are outdated compared to newer Chevys like my Camaro. Not sure why GM hasn't updated these yet but they are minor annoyances I'm sure I'll get used to. Can't wait to get through the rest of the break in!

Congratulations! I love that two tone interior! I know it was a long wait for you but you got it just in time for the great weather! Hopefully you will make the trek out this way to come on some of our cruises this summer!

Congratulations on your new C7. Great color combination and the two tone interior really makes a difference. In my opinion it brightens things up inside instead of everything being so dark (everything black). I went with two tone grey in mine. Don't worry about the radio, I hardly hear it at all, I'd rather listen to the sounds of the exhaust! Best of motoring luck to you my friend!
