RetiredSFC 97 07-26-2013 01:46 PM

who has these cars? GM employees? Or are they being sold? I thought August was the sell date.

Dude looks like Ben Aflack:lol:

That's a great video. Thanks. What a car, I doubt I'll ever own one though. By the time they're in my price range I'll be eating oatmeal.:lol:

bikeriderga 07-26-2013 02:21 PM

Super nice pics, thanks!

I love the C7. I agree the read end will take some getting use to, but otherwise, this thing looks stellar.

I want one!!

I like the one in silver. :thumbs: Its amazing how rims alone can transform the dated look of a C5 into a modern day sports car.

While C7 looks great, it just hasn't fully grown on me yet. I am hoping the C7 Z will change my mind (hopefully with some arch flares!).

jol 07-26-2013 03:16 PM

If they aren't in production yet, who owns these???

amlarson2001 07-26-2013 03:27 PM

GM owns them. They are all mule cars. Pre production test cars. They let mags and others get there first drives in. I see my first one tomorrow at Mystic Lake Casino in MN. More than excited.

Thanks. Enjoy...and post pics!!

"Dude looks like Ben Aflack"

Yeah, I thought he also sounded like him. The C7 is definitely growing on me, although, I'm not sure if I'll be around long enough to be able buy a used one down the road. Of course there's always the lottery...better start buying those tickets now.:rofl:

93civEJ1 07-26-2013 08:05 PM

Honestly I like the c6 and c5 better.

I would like a Mule in Cyber Grey please, but not if I have to give up my C5 for it!:leaving:

I never stated I was:thumbs:. Learn to read:D. My C5 is paid for, and if that C7's back is what I have to look while drinking a beer in the garage, then I'm buying a Viper next; I am however keeping the C5.

jrose7004 07-27-2013 10:56 AM

Great pics of it out on the road!
