Default Saw a C6 on the truck !

Coming into work this morning on the Jersey Turnpike Northbound, I was along side a car carrier that had a few SSRs and one dark C6. There was no mistaking it for any other car.

I wonder where it was going, and if it was a delivery to a customer or a dealer display of some sort.

No judgement on how it looked, it was on the top rack and was partially coveerd.

I saw, touched and sat in a C6 this weekend. It was a "display only" car at my local dealership, but it looked great.

GM still needs to work on the interior, but they've got the body nailed, IMO. Very fine looking beast!

I can't wait to start seeing them on the roads!

I can't wait to go to my chevy dealer and take it for a "TEST DRIVE" I have a friend that works there as a salesmen. He'll be fine if he just holds on to his rosary beads, buckles up, and repeats his hail marys.

I found out that the Paramus Auto Mall, a big Checy dealer on Rt.17 that always has lots of Corvettes is having some kind of show this Friday and Saturday.

Maybe thats where it will be.

I just hope the dealership guys aren't out driving the customers' preorders and having fun with the new cars.
