OK, truth be told, I have been drooling over the black C8s; I think they look awesome! My wife likes the look of the cars too, and is ready for me to move on from my C3, which she won't drive because it is a manual. She heard that ALL C8s are auto, and has become a LOT more interested in me selling the C3, and getting a C8. I have been quietly marketing the car (I need to fix some more stuff first before I want to list it), and I am parroting the regular buyer's bullshit I have been hearing. If I got a C8, I might try a little autocross, but have no interest in an actual racecar, so I'm sure your car isn't right for me, but someone is going to get a hot ride! |

I am now at 3000 (ORDER ACCEPTED BY PRODUCTION CONTROL) status, so it's a moving.

I am still number 400 at ciocca, my math says another 30-42 months based on how the reservations have been moving. I am not sure if I will stay in the line, as I see a used market in 3 years, and definitely see all dealers with allocations accepting a price at MSRP. Besides, that Blackwing with the manual is calling my name. I have not driven or purchased a car for myself since 1986 that was not a manual. |

7th Vette, 7th Black Vette!
It's definitely a labor of love keeping it clean. Another reason I can't wait for my hip replacement to finally be done. My mobility is crap these days, making it tough to keep clean. |

Neat statistic, I bet 95% of my neighbors have no clue I have a new car, let alone one that costs double the '21. I like being stealth in that regard.

You're a big dude. Can you put a decent seat and restraints in the car and still stay in the same class? My C8 is way too much for the seats. Always seem to be floating. Still looking for a good solution.

On a side note, I've been on the generic version of Ozempic for the last 5 weeks, and I've lost 30 pounds. I'm going to continue until I get into the 250's. Started at 325, today I was 294.2. |
