My very late mid life crisis!
 

I haven’t bought a new Corvette since my ZR1 34 years ago. My favorite Corvette body style is still the mid-years. Be warned though - if you take one of the new ones for a test drive - you just might decide that you’ve gotta have it! It happened to me!

OOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! WOW!!!! :eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2:

Fantastic!!! Congrats on that one and enjoy it!:biggthumpup:

Cheers
Dave

Congrats and enjoy!!

Wow, that is one heck of a car. If I had any brains, I'd get one of those.

Looks like a foreign car

I like the red over tan!!! Id drive the snot out of one !!!

Congrats, beautiful Vette. C8's are my favorite right after the C2's.

Congrats Bruce it checks all the boxes. Drive it like you stole it!!!

I like the new C8's, and I get the disdain for Chevy going mid-engine, but they're amazing cars. Congrats on getting that beauty!

I think the red with tan interior look good together. Nice ride 👍

Thanks guys. We’re getting some nice weather, so I’m able to put some miles on it. The break in period for the Z06 is 500 miles - can’t wait!

Wow! That's a beauty! Congrats and have fun!

Congratulations!! That’s one sweet ride!

Beauty! Enjoy in good health!

Congrats Bruce - ton of fun right there!

Congratulations - nice ride.

Congrats Bruce. Can I have it?

Good for you! Enjoy.:biggthumpup:

Never too late as long as your breathing!
Live it up!!

What a beauty. Corvettes rule. Have fun with that fast machine.

A ZO6 convert!!
Awesome!!

Awesome Corvette. I know all about a late mid life crisis. I picked up a ZL1 Camaro a few weeks ago because on my late mid life crisis.

That ZL-1 is beautiful, congrats.

Nice 'Vette (and ZL1.) I opted for a different route with my midlifer. Obviously not a corner carver (not bad though) but it sure pulls hard in a straight line. Lots of room and very comfortable a bonus.

My 2/3-life crisis car/retirement gift. Still going strong at 1,898 miles as of last week.

My car was ordered with the optional wheels (dealer installed), but I also received the original standard factory wheels with the car. So, I had the extra set of standard wheels powder coated black. I kinda like it better with the black wheels versus the look with the optional wheels that I posted initially in this thread.

I have to say that it's a beautiful Corvette no matter what wheels you have, but I kinda like the first set (though my opinion doesn't matter). I get that a lot of people like black wheels, they're just not for me.

How do you like it overall? A couple friends of mine have C8's and they love them.

Bruce: In hiindsight, anything you would have ordered differently on this?

Lynn - maybe Z07 for future resale value, but I’m really happy with the car as configured.

Bill - that’s just an old Ford.

----An interesting "old Ford" none the less!....Bill S

Great car! I like the bronze wheels better.

I would not get a Z07 unless I was going to track it. It's quite a bitter stiffer than a standard Z06.

Any issues with the reflection of the natural dash on the windshield yet?

How about a long term update; well medium term maybe?

Any issues? Any buyer's remorse?

Not a lot of miles on it yet Lynn. I love it so far. Can't wait for the good weather to get more seat time. No buyer's remorse. My classic cars are great, but performance and comfort of this car can't be beat.

Congrats Bruce !! Good luck with it!

Here is my midlife toy and my whole life toy.

Would love to see a line up of your toys !!

I’m in FL right now, but do have this pic on my phone of a new toy that I picked up.

Your ‘57 is sooooo iconic old school!!!! Love it :-)

Nice addition to the fleet!!

Bruce.
I would really be interested in your thoughts and opinions of the Z06 and the GT after driving them back to back.

I picked this 2023 Hellcat up a couple months ago.
