Default Picked up my Victory Red coupe

Picked up my Victory Red coupe (Ebony interior, Z51, Nav sys, 1SB) Wed evening from Corvette Conti in Ohio. 10 degrees when I finally got there, (one cancelled flight with a 4 hr. wait in Atlanta for the next flight).
Spent two very pleasant hours with Rick Conti doing the paperwork, etc.
I must say that Rick is the kind of person that we all should have as a salesperson. I have bought several new cars but have never enjoyed the experience as much as this time. Straight answers without the usual bullsh*t. I would recommend him without reservation to anyone looking for a Vette.
Had a ball the next two days driving the 1200 mi. back to Florida and 70 degree weather.

PeeToom:

Nice choice. My VR coupe came off the line this past Tuesday (25 Jan.) now I have two weeks until my wife and I pick it up at the Corvette Museum.

I like the airplane also. After several "V" tail bonanzas I really enjoy my Citabria... another American classic. Enjoy the car and fly safe Jack


Victory red Cashmere interior, Z51, 6 speed manual, 1SB interior and the ZM radio option Can't wait.

Good luck with the C6!!!!

I tried to buy from Rick. I e-mailed him three times with no response. I ended up buying from Monica who was great. And is a forum dealer.
