If GM wants to appeal to a younger crowd, they need to update their color options and add some new funner colors...and interior colors too...

Nah I'll be the first to admit its a lot of car for someone so young. I own a 2004 Tiburon as it is right now and the only performance car I've driven was a Camaro SS. I've never owned a new vehicle or RWD so Ill have to learn how to control the C7 and have mad respect for its power.

34 here. Could of had one a long time ago but been working my *** off the last 8 years opening up stores and getting myself to a point where I can actually enjoy it instead of letting it sit in a garage. My C7 wont be here till spring or summer but an amazing road trip will happen as soon as it comes in.

If you are referring to me, (I'm 23, but youngest in this thread so far) none of the above. I just live in kind of a special place where wages are much higher than the rest of the world. People come from all over the world to work in my city. (But mostly from Eastern Canada)

Yes I did graduate. I did a 2 year technology program at a college and I got hired onto a great company straight out of school. Also had no student loans or loans of any kind.

And no I don't have it yet. I ordered it on my birthday, Oct 24th. I expect to get it in April/May. I got the Z51 and Cf roof/interior which is all on constraint.
