Came in for service on an '11 cpe 1LT and left in a 13 Convt 4LT 60th pics!
Greg stopped in on Thursday to introduce himself as he had his 2011 1LT cpe in for service...we chatted and 1 thing led to another his wife inquired about the 60th Anniversary GS Convt on the floor. I emailed them numbers with their trade in etc and 10am Saturday they were the very proud owners of a 4LT 60th GS Convt right off the showroom floor. 
Out with the old and in with the new...here is Greg's 2011 he traded.
Above just outside my office. Greg and Robin meet Joe who drove down from Niagara Falls to pick up a new 2013 ZR1.

Congrats Greg. 
She's a beauty.
That's why I always try to stay out of the showroom when I take my car in for service.

Dangerous...but in a good way. How do you think I feel..every day coming here, mentally I pick out a new Vette for myself every single day. It's a shock that I have only owned 13 Corvettes because mentally I have owned 3,234 of them!!

I am sure he did but...The hardest part was he was driving it home and parking it in the garage and going away for the weekend with his family...so he will not touch the new Vette until tomorrow!!

That's why I don't go to new car dealers that have Corvettes. There's a sucker born every second and I have to admit I'm one. Ever since that model came out I've had to just look the other way when I see one, else I'd be well...
You'll love it, I'm sure!!!

Nice story but unless it's a "high risk" vehicle for abuse (Evo, Cobra, etc.) you'll never see me buying a car brand new. I let someone else take the huge depreciation hit before me. 
I'm a young guy who likes to have fun with my cars but just find an older owner of a Vette who takes care of it and likes swapping them out all the time and I profit from their previous purchase.
