Default Hi, all! C7 ordered, C6 still holding in.....

Hi, All!

New C7 Grand Sport Coupe 2LT ordered, Elkhart Lake Blue Metallic, Black interior, Nav & PDR. Factory order, delivery date in 6 to 8 weeks. 11 years 2 months with my C6 Blue Demon Jetstream Metallic Blue, 125,600+ extremely happy miles! I have adored my C6 and she puts a grin on my face every day! I have every hope my new C7 will do the same!

As I transition from my C6 and leave that forum, please welcome me to the C7 forum!

Rick

How exciting! Congrats, and welcome to the C7 forum Rick. I'm sure you'll enjoy your C7 even more than your C6.

My congrats as well. I've had my '14 since October of '13 and it's been trouble free. Thinking about a C8 but really need to see and sit in one before making the committment. The ME will be a whole new feel and may take some adjustment to get used to.
Still no official answer as to when the final production date of the C7 will take place?

Thank you to all who posted! I do believe I will love the new Grand Sport at least as much as my C6 Z51!

Once built and delivered, a close friend and I will fly into Oakland, be picked up by Tim Boone of F.H. Dailey Chevy and go to do the paperwork and see my new C7! Then she and I are heading to Pismo Beach down Hwy.1, have dinner, stay overnight, and complete the drive to Long Beach the next day! I am SO EXCITED!

Very nice - I wanted that Blue c6 bad, back in 2009ish. I had a white 08 back then that I loved. Sold it in 2010, but now have a 2019 GS on order, too! White again...
