I finally got my 2015 Z51 today. Here in California I have seen a total of 4 of any version of these cars since they came out. I had never seen a AW/AR convertible previously so I had ordered this amazing vehicle sight unseen. Somehow or another I nailed this car perfectly as it is the most beautiful car I have ever owned and I have owned more Exotic cars than most. I cannot wait to place this beauty next to my '69 Corvette race car which I have owned since 1971.
For anyone considering purchasing this car this is a no-brainer. Yes, I know this is a Corvette biased site but I am not at all biased. I buy what I want not what is considered new or trendy. Even my 26 year old son said "Dad, this car is more beautiful than any of the Ferrari's, Maserati's, Mercedes and other sports cars I have owned over the last 4+ decades. I am almost 60 years old and I have not had a car I had to go out into the garage to look at on 4 separate occasions plus driving it this evening in many moons. WOW!!!! I am fairly sure this is not a Mid life crisis sort of thing rather I am just smitten with the car.
This car is loaded and has the Auto 8 speed transmission. The carbon flash side mirrors and spoiler are a must for me as they really set this car off amazingly well. Some of the extras I purchased may not be necessary nor are they all that noticeable but I would not change a thing. I have driven and or owned most every F-1 Type tranny out there and this thing is the sweetest I have ever driven. The only thing which may take just a bit of time adjusting to is the feel of the car through the steering wheel. Not quite as Tactile as I am used to but that does not necessarily mean it is not great. Just different.
So many cool electronic gadgets I cannot believe some of them exist in a Corvette. It may take a month of Sunday's for this electronic gadget moron to learn everything, but Chevrolet, you really nailed it with this amazing vehicle. WOW
As a note, the pictures of these cars, while beautiful, just do not completely capture the true beauty and essence of this amazing automobile.
