Very Happy First Time Corvette Owner
Considered a number of high performance cars, and made the C7 Z51 decision. Ordered from Chris at Hendrick with courtesy delivery to Loren Berg in Newberg, Oregon. Both dealers were outstanding, and no issues to report.
It's a Z51 with 3LT and performance options. Received it Saturday night and took it out on Sunday. One 20-something guy had his parents take his picture standing next to it on Sunday. He was very careful to not touch the car, and was smiling ear to ear.
This is an outstanding car. I could not be more pleased. And most especially, many thanks to this forum for all the assistance as I was lurking.

Red Leather Looks Great
The adrenaline red leather seats and trim look fantastic, even from an outside view.

Congratulations Herb. Welcome to the C7 club. You will love your car. I guarantee it. I have logged over 7,000 miles in mine since mid October. Even took it to Pacific Raceways in Kent, WA a couple of times.
Welcome to the world of Corvettes! Now get you wallet out and let the fun begin.
