Nothing wrong with a C7, and I like the white too. I just wouldn't want to take up and down my driveway.

I agree. My brother in law has a C8 vert. The performance is there and they look fine but I much prefer the C7. The C8 feels tighter on the interior to me than the C7, even though the C8 is wider.
I have had several Corvettes. I still have a 427 67’ Convertible, 427 and no other options. Bought new by my Father. Had a 69’ 427, 4 speed convertible with a/c.
I have had several C6’s and 2 C7’s and 1 C8.
My preference is still the C6. The interior just gives you a bit more room and I prefer the exterior as long as it’s at least a GS. The last C6 I had was a special car. It was one of the Carbon Edition Z06’s. It was beautiful. Really wish I had kept that car. I bought it new for about $90k and sold it a few years later for $125k. It only had about 2k miles and was such a limited built car that they still go for more.
Congratulations on your new purchase. I’m sure you will love it!

I regret selling a few past cars and won't anymore unless have to.
1st car was an 87 Grand National - sold...
3rd was a 93 lx state trooper - crashed and sold...
I'm a dumbass for selling either of them.
Your Cuda is awesome.
I just picked up this 17 z51.
Looking for a rapid blue camaro next.
Good luck with the c7.

Did look at yellow ones too. Wife liked the stark contrast with the black accents. Looks great!

If I could extricate myself from a C7 without feeling like I just worked out I’d agree with the above poster lol.

When they debuted the car at the 2013 auto show I was a teenager and still had trouble getting in and out
Not as bad as a C4 though.

I bought myself a Corvette at 48 as well, though for a different reason. I had wanted one for as long as I could remember and after a nice little health scare, I decided it was time. Had it for 3 years and enjoyed every second behind the wheel.

I know the comparison isn't really fair, but I find my Mustang to be more fun to drive than my C5. Had I sprung for a C7 I might still have it instead of a Mustang.

Have a ‘15 C7 Z51 very. Beautiful car but admit I miss the C5 vert. A little less hi tech and roomier.
