thank you all ... infact the very 1st C7 in the country ... as quota for the new C7's for this region is very low with just 5 in the first shipment.... unfortunately was unable to get the 7 speed, besides the resale value of stick vs auto is much lower here.. the red on black looks and feels amazing .. also booked a C7 black with red interior convertible on order, should get it by July... then this baby will go.. till then will push the pedal to the metal and enjoy my baby.
