Well its been a long wait ( deposit December 2021) but its finally here.

Its going to be a love it or hate it color combo for most people but all that matters to me is I love it!

Still need to lower it, tint it and a few other personal touches but you get the idea.

My wife says I look like Papa Smurf driving it with my grey hair. I say its more like a "mature" Superman. lol

Fire away at me!

It was probably on the transport I saw last week that came through Sarnia. Driver said he was headed to Toronto (Humberview), Woodbridge, and Richmond Hill.

Having not had the pleasure/privilege of the C8 ownership experience yet, I'm thinking the hardest part (for me) will be the added wait during the break-in, before I can explore the capabilities and idiosyncrasies of the supercar called Corvette Stingray HTC/Z51. I'm sure it will be worth the wait, but agonizing, too. Enjoy.
 
I hear you brother

Those first kms will go in a heartbeat for sure. Just will be hard to resist stop lights and requests to rev it.

I have Eckart Blue and the same interior, so I have to like it. As for your hair , wear a cap or dye it. I am bald and have to wear a cap or toque all the time because of carcinoma , on the skin of my head.

I wear a cap , even when going for a walk. Dermatologist told me on my latest visit, I had no signs of carcinoma for 2 years now, on top of my head but he did find a few on my face, 4 , to be exact but he did freeze them. Some say burn but it just feels that way after it thaws out. As for the car I have the best of both worlds. Sunscreen and a hat/cap does the trick, derma says.
 
Congrats on the new ride... do you know when you spec'd the car out? I gave my deposit to WN in August 2022, and I haven't gotten any updates. In Jan 2023 the dealer told me I am 80 in the queue, and then i reached out to him 2 weeks back, and he again told me I am 80 in the queue. When I asked how that makes any sense because thats what he had told me in Jan 2023, almost 5 months ago, he stopped responding. Very much annoyed at this point about WN. Have dealt with Deacon at Orangeville Chevy and Tracy at Brian Cullen, and these gentleman were a pleasure to deal with.
