Ordered the new one today.
With the Cruiser gone, I needed a new toy and to stay in the Corvette Community of which I've grown fond.
Ordered this today. Night Race Blue/Yellow Calipers/Kalahari Interior/3LT trim/Z51/NPP exhaust and broke down and got the paddle shift A6 which will be tuned. I should see it towards the end of March which is fine with me. Last edited by 73sbVert; 01-18-2014 at 5:06pm. Reason: Put correct image tags in post. Hope you don't mind! |

She's gorgeous! I'd get the same combo, but in a 'vert of course!

Took Mrs. WKMCD up to Criswell's where it's ordered. She had never seen the C7. Mike Furman was great and opened up one so we could sit in it and play with all the knobs and buttons. She loved it and insisted that I add the carbon fiber dash option.
There was a special moment where she told Mike that it was at her insistence that I get the C7 when I was at first thinking of buying a 2013 Grand Sport. She's a keeper! |

It took so long to order I ended up changing my mind on a few things. Mrs. WKMCD really hated the Kalahari interior and I realized that the lighter brighter colors show off the car's lines better.
I went full pimp. Torch Red with Black 3LT Interior |

Gonna look good. Just canceled mine with Criswell, I was 23rd in line for a Z51, the list waiting for an allotment. Townsend Bros Chev (folks I want to purchase from) just called and said they just received ONE Z51 allotment ready to order, soooo order is in, 8 weeks, give or take.

So you've got a few weeks to order a blower for it.
You might as well do it now, because you know just those modest 450 horses will NOT be enough for you. |

I ended up going to Kerbeck for mine since I would just now be in the que at Criswell. Mine is built, just waiting for the call from Kerbeck to come get it.
Torch Red, Comp seats with microfiber inserts, and of course, Z51 |
