    just have some restraint on the options and you should come out good. :) especially if there is still a long wait for the Stingray at that time.

    But, be sure to check ALL the boxes on the Z06 tho! It will be a keeper. :cool: :p (at least until a R/Clubsport model, but that won't be for 4-6 years IF even)

    I'm with you. I put a deposit down with Ciocca within the first few minutes of them being open for reservations.

    Tornado went through Bowling Green today. May have hit the GM factory or Corvette Museum. Hope everyone is OK.

    I think the Corvette Museum was saved. The Webcams came back on about 3 AM their time.

    Indeed. It seems like there's always something with C8 production. Sadly, this time it went way beyond someone getting their car a little later:(

    I think that is an early Z06 mule with the camo removed. There's been a lot of discussion on the Corvette boards about it.

    Someone i know just bought a C8 and tried to tell me it was a special limited edition model with a lot more HP and he paid $50k over MSRP.

    He knows im a car guy so why on Earth he would lie like that is baffling.

    I would have hoped if it were aftermarket he would have said that, and not said a special edition he paid $50k over market for.

    I did ask him for clarification and i got 'nevermind' back

    I did something unusual today.

    I ordered a take out sandwich and went over to pick it up. I had the top down and didn't think it was necessary to put it up just to pop in and out. But I hit the alarm button.

    When I walked back the car I put the paper bag into the passenger seat footwell area. I didn't touch the car at all but the alarm immediately went off. I don't know how they sensed this but I was pretty impressed.

    It was Free! Free is always good no matter what size.
