Back in August last year I drove from Toronto to a dealer in Upstate New York where they had a reveal. Sat in a Sebring orange Coupe, then came back home and placed my deposit. About a 5 hour drive total plus border crossing. I wanted to see the C8 in person and sit inside before I parted with my hard earned ca$h!

We did that run too! VanBortels? Great trip and with the ability to sit in and review even pre production build quality was key to moving forward with purchase.

So true, for me this a great way to get my wife to green light the investment. Just saying you want to buy a car sight unseen does not work well in my house. So we went on a Friday and made an afternoon of it. The Dealership was wonderful. What true sports to host the reveal. Free food, local Corvette Club members came out on mass and created a great car show of all kinds of fabulous rides. The funny thing was the demographics. My wife commented that I was one of the "young ones" and I'm 54. haha. I spoke with some young lot jockey while waiting for our viewing time slot and he was so enthusiastic. I think that dealer was clearly focused on vettes. I would certainly recommend anyone to look them up and head down for any events they put on. Quite the community. The drive down there is great. Very scenic.
