Thanks Mike. This was really great. I'll continue to watch future developments and the long-term reports on this new Corvette.
I must say, my initial reaction, based on the early concept drawings and even the photos of the prototypes left me a little - well, unimpressed. In fact I even put out some feelers to see if there were any 2013 C6's left that might be worth picking up. Say, like a 60th anniversary 427 convertible? My word those things are pricey.
Now that Walter has been kind enough to overcome his unwillingness to be called a media ***** and bring his new car out for us to see, I am greatly impressed. I think I need one. Of course the C6 Aero Lightweight (1 of 42) is in good fettle and should last a while.
These new C7's are amazing. I sure wish I was younger and could remember why it was important to have cars like this?

I'm not always a big fan of the media but long term tests can provide some good insight. Thanks to Walter we may not need to track it
I'd say you're in a really good position to hold out for a bit Phil. The C6's will be dropping in price and so will the C7's!
Meanwhile your Aero Lightweight (1 of 42) is extremely rare and only increasing in value. Who needs the impatience of youth, or youth for that matter. It's not like we can go back in this lifetime!
