Pick Up My Brand New C6 Today!!!!! Pic Inside!!
 
Just got home with my brand new 2012 C6! I bought it at Coughlin Chevrolet! Rick Conti was an absolute professional to deal with. It was a very easy and straight forward deal! I could not have had a better buying experience! They have over a hundred new corvettes on their lot, and there is NO dealerships with better deals right now!! Trust me I looked everywhere!

Here is the picture that he took of my fiancee and I when we took delivery!

Nice. White is my second favorite color. Looks like its lowered a little already. I slammed mine. Is it a 6 speed manual?

LSD 2005 12-12-2012 11:16 PM

Welcome to the Family. I'm sure you and your Fiancee' will have many miles of smiles.:thumbs::cheers:

peter pan 12-12-2012 11:19 PM

Congrats and very nice.

dbartromvette 12-12-2012 11:19 PM

Thanks guys! Yep 6spd 1lt car. I do plan on lowering it and adding headers, npp, painting the calipers, and painting the top and halo black.

All in due time though... I'm going to enjoy it as it sits for a while!

Gary '09 C6 12-12-2012 11:20 PM

congrats to both of you ! :thumbs:

Pitbull11 12-12-2012 11:21 PM

That's a beauty and the Vette's good looking too. :)

Rathmullan 12-12-2012 11:29 PM

Very Nice! Oh, and your new Corvette looks good too!:canadaflag:

No seriously, if my other toy car ('06 MC LZ9) weren't Arctic white I would purchase a white Corvette as well. Per one of the other responses, has the car been lowered or are you and your fiance both tall? Or is it kind of an optical effect caused by the black rims?

Anyway. Congratulations!

c6vette142dude 12-12-2012 11:38 PM

Congrats! :thumbs: :cheers:

They're on the sidewalk. The car's on the pavement next to the curb a few inches lower.

Manual? The 3:42 gearing in the manual makes the car much quicker. I just picked up a low mile 06 6 speed mAnul, with mods. But after driving the a6 cars, the stick is so much quiker

bigblock427 12-13-2012 07:27 AM

Congratulations on your new Vette.:cheers: I think Artic White is a great color on Vettes. I have owned two Artic White Vettes.

Enjoy your new ride.:thumbs:

Congratulations on a great choice. It will really look killer once you do the top and halo in black.

Boomer111 12-13-2012 06:43 PM

Nice, it was between white and silver for me and I went with the silver.

I think the black halo and top with white cars look dynamite along the grey rims...

1LT is all you need too.

Sabre34 12-13-2012 06:47 PM

Congrats on the new Corvette and welcome to the AW fraternity

It seems like Rick has whipped Coughlin into shape. I stopped in there before he arrived (I think he was still at Ganley) They had a decent selection, but they were dust collectors. Still had a new 09 Z06 on the lot in August 2011:eek:

oldgoat99 12-15-2012 09:51 AM

:party:White is one of my favorite colors!

Boozman 12-15-2012 12:39 PM

Awesome color congratulations

dbartromvette 12-15-2012 01:12 PM

Thanks for all the replys guys! I have already put almost 400 miles on it!! I feel a little guilty about driving everyday, but I can't bring myself to leave it in the garage!

I can't believe how much quieter it is, and how smooth it rides! My 03 was a great car, but this thing is just so much more refined! I thought I would be disapointed in the 1lt stereo, but it sounds great to me!

SeeFiveOhFun 12-15-2012 04:04 PM

Badness - congrats on the purchase . . . great choice!! :thumbs:

RoadkingC6 12-16-2012 01:42 PM

Congrats and nice car, just a suggestion though instead of painting the top black i might think of getting the smoked glass top, it will look black on the car and you get a clear top too, also i saw that GM Parts house has them on sale now I think it was $1099.00 shipped a good deal i thought Good Luck and enjoy the new ride!

427 Pilot 12-16-2012 02:35 PM
