Hello C7 world
Well, I've had, and immensely enjoyed, a C4, 2 C5's and 2 C6's. So, when the bug bit I knew it was time to see the road over the beautiful fenders of a C7. Just yesterday my son and I took a road trip from near Philly to Virginia Beach. We came, we saw, I bought. Can't say it was a great ride back through the cold rain and wind, but I'm looking forward to learning this car (they sure get more complicated with each generation) and enjoying all it has to offer.
This one is a Laguna Blue Z51 2LT with a lot of nice options. I particularly enjoyed the competition seats, which fit me like a glove! It has only 20K miles and was really kept in showroom condition by the previous owner.
And so, because threads without pix suck...
I guess I have to change my handle now...

Ya know, it's tempting! I always loved the transparent targa panel on my prior Vettes, so I would have to consider getting one and painting the spears. Similar look -- and that airy feeling.
I think I'll live with this one a bit and see how it feels. So far (all of 2 days) I don't miss the transparent roof at all, and I think the CF looks amazing. I would not want both, so maybe at some point I'll be in the parts section looking to trade...
