Can I bring my C7 over for a photo shoot in front of your garages?

Though I'm not a fan of while, getting rid of the contrasting gobble-de-gook certainly makes it look better (more of a piece) than most I've seen to date.

Actually my Samsung S10 plus does have wireless charging. The reason why I mount my phone on top of my armrest is just due to my personal preference. I am used to having my phone in front of me in view. This leaves the wireless charger free for my co-pilot to use. However, for those who prefer to keep it in the wireless charger behind you, that works too. While your phone is upside down in the wireless charger, you can connect it by cable to under your armrest and you will have all the android auto (or apple carplay) access that you want. I love the wireless charger too for my friends when they have a low phone charge which seems to happen more than they would wish! Boy, Chevrolet engineers really designed the C8 well for us. The whole car is very USEFUL for my driving needs!

It must be nice to have a Lifestyle that can support those kinds of toys. I'm referring to your home and C8!!!

Default Fill the holes?

So removing the spoiler will leave holes that will need to be filled.

Most know what she is when she is parked (duh corvette emblem on her butt) but some of those who walk up often ask Ferrari? Mclaren ? This morning, at the golf range, a golfer pulls up in a golf cart and says to his friend who is behind me ... I can see you driving in that !

I hope you all get your C8s soon,
Luc
I was going to add that in my original post, its got some exclusivity by default.
