[QUOTE="pozi240, post: 245800, member: 7335"] Good day happy C8 people! I'm new here and have a deposit for a 2022. Hoping by late spring or summer next year to be in my own C8. [USER=6623]@Andrew Spencer[/USER] has been amazing so far and very helpful with this process, I wish I lived closer to use them for my future car servicing as well. Anyway, I'm at least 12 months out, and my wife is not "fully convinced" she is going to like the car. (We have had Shelby's and various Mustangs in our garage and she is a "Ford girl" and very active in the Ottawa Mustang Club, etc, etc.) In the end, she will support my decision on whatever car I buy, but, I like her to be totally onboard as well. We have watched a ton of YouTube videos and I have shared pictures and we've "built" a number of virtual cars in the Corvette Configurator online. Its just not the same and seeing a C8 up close and in the "flesh". I was going to start calling around to various Ottawa Chevy dealers to see if any new customer orders have come in but not delivered yet to at least just look at them, however, with things the way they are in Ontario currently, you can't just walk into dealerships right now, so, not the best option. So, not to sound too "stalkerish"...... I wanted to see if any Ottawa people on here would mind us just meeting up in parking lot somewhere (social distancing of course) and just looking at your C8. I don't want to touch it or even get in it, just seeing one in person I think would really help my wife get comfortable on just how amazing these cars are and in a whole other league from previous generation Corvette's. It truly is a "super car" with a conservative price tag. I know technically we can't gather or have car meets right now, but, I'm hoping with the nicer weather now, I may be able to see one of you out and about and finally get a sense of these beauties.
