This guy with the winning colours over here :-) Love love love accelerate yellow - photos never do it justice as when you see it in-person. How are you finding them here in Edmonton? Pot holes treating ya well? :P

Rented it from here: Kelowna Dream Car Rentals

Thanks - was a perfect day for driving yesterday. We started in Kelowna and went down to Area 27 at Oliver to race some go-karts.

It was better than I expected, actually. Quite enjoyed being able to take the top off to enjoy the sunshine, and it sounded great with the top on too (coupe model). I've driven quite a few exotics (F430, Gallardo, R8, Turbo S) and it holds up. Little bit tight of a cabin space compared to my...

Beauty :)

Rented a 2023 C8 while in Kelowna this weekend. What a fun car. This was my first time driving one. Still on the wait list in Edmonton for a chance at one of my own :) Pro tip: Wear sunscreen if driving for extended periods of time with the top off. I may have forgot and drove 90 mins on a...

jeeze, what dealer was this?

Subtext for the post - It's not even the prices that bother me (it's criminal, yes), it's just the fact that these aren't easy to get allocation on, and it feels like there can't be all that many in Alberta... how many people have their freakin' cars listed is what I'm curious about. And for...

Kinda frustrating seeing 54 C8's listed for sale in Alberta on Autotrader (all way over MSRP - $127,800 for a 1LT? f*** off) while folks who have been on the wait list and who actually want to BUY and KEEP the car can't get one yet. I'm sure this isn't new - just really ridiculous to see this.

oof. I'm on that list... no updates in a while. used to get a reply via email

Anyone attending? I saw a Rapid Blue leaving when I got there last night - Would be cool to meet some locals in the St. Albert and Edmonton area this weekend. :)

Official update from the National Corvette Museum re: Personalized Interior Plaque. You CAN remove the plaque with ease - you have to order a second piece at a later date if you wish to remove the custom name plate if you wish to sell your vehicle at a later date or just don't want the plaque...

Ouch! Is this yours @JVi?

@Rruuff Day - yea, I think it's like anything - once you get over the 'it's brand new' thing and realize it's still 'just a car' and that you've been driving for quite some time it's really not a big deal. 😆

I hear you on the pot hole issues around Edmonton @netsinah! I'm a lil north of ya ;) I was originally looking at some older '06-'09 cars (Gallardo, F430, R8) prior to the C8 release, and have driven them all as well out in B.C., so I'm familiar with what you shared about those bumps and...
