Default New GS 2011

Picked up new Gs yesterday. Crystal Red, 3lt, Nav and all the rest. Handles a lot better than my old 78 vette. Trying to get use to a sports car again after all these years. Wife was even in favor of this purchase. Will get pics as soon as I learn how to do it.. She is a beauty.

Congrats on your new ride! I LOVE Crystal Red Metallic - came real close to getting that color but the CG w/ 2tone seats just caught my eye. My previous Vette was Magnetic Red.

As far as pictures, just find somewhere to load them up to the Internet, like Webshots, Snapfish, etc. Then just copy the address link for the picture - then select the "image" icon (the yellow box with the mountain in it while you're replying to originating your message) then copy the address link into it and you should be good to go.

Have fun with the new ride! Can't wait to see pics. Post them up in the "Grand Sport Picture Thread" too!

Congrats on the new ride!!! But need to see pics.

I thought I heard the CRM was not going to be available because of shortages in paint caused by the problems in Japan. If that is the case you are doubly lucky to find one! Enjoy!!!

I am sure this was in fun, but some of us don't have time to set up a photo sharing account, or don't even have a computer (ME!), to post pics with. I can't with my (DUMB) phone, as most photo host sites don't support it. I will be getting a new (SMARTER) phone soon though. WOO HOO!

I found that it was just easier to become a supporting member. You can directly upload pictures without the hassle of all that other stuff.

[B]Picked up our new 2011 GS 6spd In Crystal Red this last week, also like other members have been driving an older vette (68) and as beautiful as that car is , the new one is unbelievable, the husband is a Shelby nut but I told him that he can have them ~ this is my dream car!
