Default C7 et al ....Lone Star Classic at TMS

Lone Star Corvette Club Classic 2013




















Chatted with Liz and Wil for awhile.

Caught Bucky checking out the c7.



































Paging Milton Fox!









Saw Adam Boca for just a minute.


Talked to Wil for so long, some other folks and then another friend who moved here from Columbus, GA (owner of "70 toy"), that we only saw a portion of the show.

It was fun, though, and great to see the c7 in person, even if it was GREEN!

pics, thanks.


Not sure about that green. From the pics, it looks a bit lighter than DBGM? (I happen to like that color)

That's one of the first C7's I haven't liked. I'm NOT a fan of the green. Can't believe they are out promoting with it.

I like the green, too. It's been too long since they've offered a green Corvette.

I'm the flipside of that coin... I'm deeply in lust for that color right now... I think I could live with the tail lights if my Sting Ray was that color.

I'll never understand how the 98 pace car was green lighted.

There have been so many Corvette pace cars, the gay coalition demanded one be designed for them.

What's your take on the interior Liz? I haven't seen it in person yet, but I'm really diggin' it from the pics I've seen of it.

I don't. He said he was selling it, and I saw the For Sale sign, but didn't even look at the price. Someone who is still on CF could shoot him a PM there and ask.

Someone was blinded by the flash, or maybe the lovely yellow wheels.

I was going to go back by and ask to get inside to look closer and get some interior pix, but....again....I talked too long, and it was already gone when we got back down there. Dennis was inside the ring taking pix, so perhaps he posted some on CF.

But I'm also the girl who bought the c6 vert, opened the trunk to put my luggage in and said "What??? My c5 trunk was bigger than this!"

ie It's the new vette. I want it. I hope the interior looks nice and the seat feels good when I sit my rear in it.

From the pics I've seen, the interior looks amazing. I'm hoping it is as nice in person.
