New Corvette

[Lee]

Saw a red one at the Boston Auto Show Saturday. Thankful it wasn't Arctic White. I would have been searching countrywide to find one. No local dealers have one in any color. My plan was to sit in it, unfortunately it was roped off limits. It sure was purty...

Production starts in February.

The first one was just auctioned off at Barrett Jackson over the weekend.

That was a pre production car.

While the car at the actual auction is painted red, it's just a placeholder. The real No. 001 hasn't been built yet, but Chevrolet says it'll be a fully loaded black-on-black coupe in 3LT spec equipped with the Z51 package. This build echoes the final C7 Corvette, which was a black-on-black Z06 coupe that sold for $2.7 million last fall. The auction winner will be able to pick the 'Vette up at Chevy's Bowling Green, Kentucky, factory and get a tour of the Corvette museum. The winner will also receive artwork of the car and a certificate of authenticity.

I had a friend that was supposed to pick up his Corvette at the museum but it got cancelled with the sinkhole opened up inside the place. He ended us just taking one off the lot here in Maryland.
