Default Hot August Nights 2014 C7's in Reno,NV.

They added a Cyber Gray coupe today to the group so now there are 4 C7 Vettes at the GSR. They also said there are 2 more at the convention center for the Barrett-Jackson auction (a LB and a NRB). I uploaded my pics to Photobucket so if you would like to see them just go here:

That CG and LB look awesome in the bright sunlight!

My wife and I drove 186 miles Wed morning to see the C7's in Reno! 2 at the Barrett/Jackson auction/ 1 across from Atlantis where the Bonderant set up is/ 3 at the Grand Sirerra at the Ron Fellows set up is and 1 in the lobby of the Silver Legacy .I tried to tell one of the guys at the Bonderant set up that the Cyber Grey was mine and I would really like to take it home and not wait for it to get to my dealer! DIDN"T WORK. Drove back the 186 and was at work at 2:45
Maybe we shouldn't have seen them in person as now we are really wishing ours was here

Thanks for sharing.

It's so frustrating for us here in Texas. Most of us down here have not seen it in the flesh yet.

Default C7s at Barrett Jackson / Hot August Nights

I posted on the 'appearances' thread. We've found seven so far in Reno.

I would post pics if it was easy. Is there no way to upload a pic right into a thread? We have to do one of those other Website links? <sigh>

I will try to figure it out...

You have to be a paid member to upload photos. That's why I put mine on Photobucket.

We are 7 less here in Mississippi. I tried to get one at the Mississippi Corvette Classic in Jackson on the 17th of August to no avail. I sure hope that A/C works well in this high humidity heat. LOL maybe they think Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Georgia arn't worthy.

Hope this works. I dumped all our C7 pics into the photo bucket. Gotta run to see Barrett Jackson today!

Sorry I didn't edit for the best ones!

Cheers!

Thanks for the photos. I love the interior of the indoor Laguna Blue C7 and the interior of the Cyber Gray C7 outdoor. I thought i would like the red but it looks to bright, I prefer a more brick red like in the BMWs.

Thats the first good shot I have seen of the Cyber Gray with Kalahari outside (other than the one GM Promo photo). It looks much less orange than the interior shots we have all seen.
