We decided it wasn't worth going up to MetLife Stadium. Thinking back to the Lexus event at Citi Field, these aren't events that one wants to go out of the way to attend.
So we ended up going to Great Adventure, and this happened. In the end, that's the way these events should be, walk up....

We just had a long (and somewhat controversial) thread here in Car Chat comparing the value of a Corvette to a typical Ferrari.

Not usually like this, but I am smitten. The one I drove did not have the wide tires (I think it would need the Z51). The automatic car they had was a Gran Sport, which I believe had the 325's in the rear. Never say never, but imho this is a car saving one's pennies for. Might do some research and see if there is a sweet spot on picking these up used (have always heard 5 y.o. on the 997 and 991)....

You can get great discounts on Corvettes now.
I know a dealer in LI that had 5 Grand Sports from 2017MY all brand new sitting unsold.
This was a few months ago.
For the $$$, its hard to beat the performance and sound you get.

Personally I love the look of the current C7 as well. Looks exotic, very "NOW", something I couldn't say about the C6, while handsome, did look like a warmed over C5 with fancy new projector headlights.
OP, congrats on your purchase. How is that 7 speed manual rowing through the gears??? Its kind of funny, cars now have as many gears as old semi trucks lol.

I like the car and it would seem it's certainly worth $50k, $60k. Upon configuring one online, I came away with $79k for a Gran Sport. No way I can do without those 325's on the rear if I were to get one. But imagine getting a bare bones one for $50k...they are brand new on cars.com for $49,xxx. Not sure if you can get that plus tax out the door, could be a trap....

I will not say what happened when I did my "pinkie test." That's where I test the power steering by seeing if I can turn the wheel from lock to lock with my pinkie, while standing still...lol
But I did love it. Emphasis on love. And I'm happy that it would seem the stick is not going away.
