Delivery of my C7 on 10/2/13

I got very lucky. I was looking to order this exact car when my local dealer got one in unsold. WHT z51, mag ride, sport exhaust, LT3, auto, w/ carbon top and dash.
PS They do have an all black car unsold that should be delivered any day now. It is optioned like mine @ Rodger Dean in West Palm FL. Contact Vincent. Oh and the car is AMAZING. I traded a 2012 640I BMW. Fit and finish of new vette is just as good as my 80K BMW! Great job GM and proud to be back in an American car!!!!

Congrats! That's a huge performance upgrade from the 640i and glad to hear that the fit and finish are no worse.

Please share an owner's review with us once you've had some time with the beast.

Yes took me a while to get close to where I wanted to be. I paid about 2k too much if you ask me. Benefit is I got my car now. I happy with the deal. They will ask 10k over, but they are willing to deal. They have 3-4 usold cars on the way. All z51's.

Great color, congrats. Please give an evaluation after you have a few hundred miles on the odo. I am really interested in your opinion came from a high end car as the 640.
Enjoy.

I've got a little over 500 miles so far. This car is my daily driver as was my 640. The c7 fit and finish inside is just as good as the 640. In many ways I like the c7 more. 1st the seats are more comfortable in the c7. My 640 seats were harder and not as supportive. Everyone raves about bmw seats. I don't like them. My wife drives a 2012 550I w/ executive package. Upgraded 14 way pwr seats. The seats in her 550 are hard as a rock. Both her and I don't like them. My last vette was a c-4 almost 20 yrs ago. I've driven c-5's and c-6's. In my mind every vette is a great car, but the inside was not impressive just functional. This new c7 is impressive! GM did a great job. No rattles everything seems to be very tight. No more excuses. Now it the least expensive supper car with an interior that can hang with all the 80k + competitors. My opinion if you have any specific questions I'd be happy to answer them.
Thanks
