Great car as well though so the main goal here is to see who can make it through the summer months without a single ticket.

I love detailing vehicles in the warm weather, I don't know why. Just relaxing I guess.
Should be a fantastic summer for us. I think our 12yr old son Mason is going to have quite a time choosing who he is going to ride with but I wish I had that problem when I was a kid.
I'll post some photos as soon as the car arrives which cannot come soon enough.
What do you veteran's think of the new design this year?

Automatics are not a problem. They can be driven hard also. Read an article recently that stated that standard transmissions will eventually be a thing of the past for automotive manufacturers.

I like the new design. I know there's lots of people that don't but they look good to me. I'm interested to see how the aftermarket does with the ecoboosts power and also how well the half shafts in the new IRS work out, ie how long till they start to break. That will decide if I buy one or not in a year or two.

Here's a few crappy photos. More to come this summer as I just ordered new wheels from CCW. Went with 19'' T-10's polished.

Sweet ride, it might be the only current Chevy worth buying. I'll bet its a lot of fun, the 'Vette's got more than enough HP to get you impounded. lol Thanks for posting.

Vette's about the same HP as the new Mustang but I'm planning more engine mods in the next year or so. Hopefully a supercharger as well!
I'd like to get to 600HP or thereabout's.

Congrats on the purchase. Saw a '15 in Oxford White GT with black stripping, and silver wheels that look similar to the FR500 wheels. Man it was sweet looking. Pictures do this car no justice.
Vette look killer too.
