Awesome!!! I remember the discussion that night in the lot.

And I LOVE your wife!!! Please tell her hello and give her a big hug from me. We had a blast hanging out the day we left you at the hotel. (Not because we left you at the hotel, of course!!! )

Not a fan of the car but that looks to be a damn sharp color combination. That's a great shade of blue.

I recall when you told Theresa and I about your purchase decision at the NCM parking lot. Textbook "nice problem to have" if ever there was one.

If the C7 isn't to my liking, the C6 427 vert will probly be my next (& last) Corvette.

Hey Tim, You might want to look at a GT500, has more "FACTORY" horsepower and it's cheaper.

I don't care for a black top on a blue car! So I love the blue top.

Oh come on! Don't short yourself! I'm sure you're going to live so long, you'll be buying a C10...used.

That "blue" car is almost black to my eyes so a black top would fit IMO. To each his own though.
