      Oh wait its on sale at $225...wow!

      I know there is something wrong with me that thinks thats crazy!

      enjoy and thank you ...you are the normal one and Im the old man....thinking...if a person spends a 1000 bucks for black wheels dont the black lug nuts come for free?

      I truly hate my thought process sometimes.

      all kidding aside im sure they are carbon flash matched and worth every penny.

        Love your SPEC I'm a carbon fiber junky too. Sadly the Grill Inserts is on Constraint when orders open (I'll pass for now to get the car sooner than later, maybe aftermarket). I'm trying to be semi-responsible and keeping it contained around 85K but it's not going well, too much candy in this store.

              One “could” go over the moon, add in Custom VIN @ $5,000 and probably get to $110K. I have not done mine yet. Leaving that for another day, for as Co-Captain, today working on our Pacific Northwest part of next Thursday when we take off on the National Corvette Caravan.

              Still, let’s focus on what is most special and available to all of us:

              Under 3.0 seconds to 60 MPH, $59,995 delivered, and gorgeous inside and out!

              A freakin’ home run Corvette team!

                  You are exactly the customer GM is hoping for. Sounds like a terrific, loaded up Vette that you will enjoy.

                  I am the customer they are less enamored with. 1LT, Z51. Out the door at $67,000.

                    Agreed, that pricing and option list is a Chevy dream customer. I am not one of those though and will likely whittle my list down to a more palatable, measly, lousy, paltry $80K, or so.

                      Listen ...the great,thing about ordering up a new car is you get it delivered as you see fit.

                      for many people getting the new vehicle delivered exactly how you want it...is all its about.

                      I appreciate those who do that and get the vehicle murdered out...

                      i was just kidding about the 225 dollar black lug nuts and I seriously imagine they match the carbon flash wheels exactly and that does have value to the very detailed oriented consumers in this world.

                      the option list GM put together on this new generation corvette is exquisite and still value oriced compared to many competitors like porsche for example.


                      the c7 ran from 56 grand to about 104 grand and that included I believe the convertible option...

                      should be fun once the retractable roof convertible prices out...

                      what do we figure 109 grand total and at that its still a screaming deal...

                      more cash than Ill spend as Ill stick with the awesome targa top...as I dont mind pulling the roof myself even at 60 years old..

                      my wife teases...really you are going to be lifting that roof off manually in your 60s...im like hell yeah...


                      tjat said...the retractable spyder roof feature is awesome..

                      hard to say what GM charges but for those that gotta have the best ...that spyder retractable top is worth what GM will end up charging...

                      for my old bones..Ill do the 30 second manual targa lift and carry to the trunk...

                      i love that open air feature..

                      definitely one of the many features of corvette tjat keeps me coming back year after year...

                      the reason so many say the corvette ownership group is so old....we are the most loyal consumers out there..

                      i dont care when you buy a corvette...once you own...you just keep buying newer generations throughout your lifetime..

                      We were all 30 or 40 once buying our first corvette...we just keep coming back year after year...


                      the cars that good.

                        You have Grill Inserts twice in your build, so just saved you $2095. Also not sure if S6S and 5VM have overlap and create a redundancy as well.
