OK here is a question I have been asking myself and figured you might be asking yourself the same thing. Would you buy the new C-7 in its first year of production? I have purchased a few new vehicles in my time and have purchased two “new design” SUV’s on their first year of production. For the most part I regretted it. Based on what I have read about the new Stingray it may be one of the most complicated platforms that “The General” has ever produced with the possible exception of Cadillac. When I say complicated, I mean the electro-mechanical marriages that this platform seems to be full of. Sure it’s got a warranty to take care of getting it fixed, but getting fixed by whom? Mr. Goodwrench? Someone that has no practical working experience on this new vehicle? I don’t think so. I tend to think that if I do pull the trigger on the C-7 I want to give the engineers time to sort out the bugs, and there will be bugs. I don’t want my new baby to be the Guinea Pig for the local dealership. I see on several other vette sites that people falling all over themselves to place orders for the C-7, not even knowing the final prices. I have seen the options list, so I guess it is doable, I just don’t think I would want to. What are your thoughts?
