Since there is no lien involved, it made it an easier decision.
Decided to suck it up and go for it... otherwise I would be second guessing for who knows how long.

Now, where to find a license plate bracket with something other than the "Grand Sport" currently on our GS ??? Anyone found one?

Gotta learn this whole Vert thing.......
If I had the anniversary edition, I would get this frame...

You must have made the right decision
because
you sound happy about it.

They say you can't take it with you, but for $100,000
I will tell you how you can....................Ed

and I thought I was crazy for considering going from a 10 month old 2012 CE vert to a 427 vert. Heck, I'd only lose $20,000 on the trade. Decided to wait a few years and see how the C7 shakes-out. If money is no object, go for it.

I'm amazed at how many people think its a "crazy" idea now. When the 427 was announced.. guys were literally pushing each other jump in line and get one. Now everybody think its crazy or a worried about money.

Guess the C7 announcement has changed some peoples decisions.
