Yep, thanks for posting. I'd like one too.....but just the base, not the monster Z06 motor....want the automatic......and its interesting that white has gone from a "middle of the pack" color, to the top color.

I did not need to see that!


Makes me want what I cannot have.


I'll just have to get that experience through some other lucky owner.

When I saw the first 60th 427 vert at the factory in April I fell in love. I usually do not like white Vettes but this is just an awesome overall Vette. I might have to call tommy Jr sooner than I thought.
