    So good to see you and Rick back together again. 😎 The Batman & Robin of the Corvette World & I will let you and Rick figure out who is Batman LOL but you always had the Black on Black Z06 so that might give you the Batman title 👌The last time I saw you Chuck was when you and Rick did the last video together. RUclips Corvette fans missed your channel and it is really good to see you back and of course you are stepping it up in the technology department. Welcome back again from a 🇨🇦 Canadian Fan of a couple of 🇺🇸 Corvette RUclipsrs 🏆

    That build is almost exactly what my "second option" would have been. I love red cars so I had it in my head I wanted red/black combo but if the right gray would have come along that would have been it! Great looking car, Chuck and it's great to have you back!

    That was great Chuck. That's a very handy and fun website GM has put up. I wish I had your tutorial when I started building my car. But, after building it a thousand times I finally figured it out. The best part was when Rick shocked me by calling and saying he had an allocation for a ZR1 open up but that I needed to order quickly so he didn't lose the allocation, I was ready to roll. I had built it so many times that we had that car ordered in about 15 minutes! Working with Rick is just a great experience. I can’t stress that enough. My ZR1 isn't sitting in my driveway yet, but it will be here soon! Welcome back!!

    Hi Chuck. Just one correction. The Chevrolet build website does allow you to choose the standalone carbon ceramic brake option for $7,495 (on screen # 5 Exterior, under the mechanical section) if you don't first choose the Z07 package on the earlier screen. Of course if you do choose the Z07 pkg. on the earlier screen., as you did in the video, then when you get to 'screen # 5 Exterior' the standalone carbon ceramic brake option no longer displays the individual option price of $7,495 & you just see the check marks next to the Z07 option & the Brembo carbon ceramic brakes (included in Package), as you showed in your video.

    Very slick car you have ordered and am glad you went with the black red stripped wheels - I think the black stripes adds another level of aggressiveness. Also, I really like the new presentation format.

    I’m sure you know but no remote start with manual. I had an auto then standard. Went back to auto. I don’t track my car. Shifting is fun but auto is convenient when cruising. Nice to have a cup of coffee in traffic.

    • @Corvettes918

    Great video! I'm looking forward to the tire discussion as this is going to determine what model to go with. I'm leaning toward more daily driving as opposed to track weekends so 2k for a set of tires on a Grand Sport/Z06 that last 10k miles tops will come into play.

    Thanks for going through how to build a Corvette with Rick! This was very informative. Too funny, your build is very similar to my build color, strip & transmission 😀😀. I will need Rick’s professional opinion to customize my car to make it mine. Looking forward to purchasing from Rick mid 2019.
    So glad you are back! I’m excite with you and for you to get your Corvette in the next few weeks.

    Thanks for the reply back. Thought the link may have been bad. Glad you are back in the Corvette family. Loved this episode with Rick. Wished I had gone through him that my local dealer who hates Corvettes. I had to almost force him to order my car. I was trading in my C6 and just thought that would cause issues with going through Rick or Kerbeck.

    Good vlog and nice build Chuck! I hope the Ohio February weather is favorable for your drive home. Have to disagree with you about the black lug nuts though, I like that little bit of contrast with the black wheels and the bright bits on the carbon ceramic brake rotors :)

      @Corvettes918  5 лет назад

      Thank you J. Me and you both. Weather will be tricky during time to go get it. Some guys enjoy them and thats not an issue. It just a running joke with me because I didn't even notice them on the black Mamba for 6 months until someone watching pointed it out and I have been hooked on them every since. Have a great New Year.

    This is very true Chuck the Mercedes Benz dealer here where I live (El Paso, Tx) absolutely would not budge on there pricing and would not order what I wanted on my 2018 MBenz S560 they seemed more on getting rid of there 2017 inventory so I actually called MBenz of Scottsdale and had every option and detail at a way lower price than here. I just had to wait almost 6 months for it to be built and shipped from Germany. I will never buy a Mercedes from my local dealer ever!
