I sold my JLR in April and waited a few months to get a replacement. It finally arrived about two weeks ago. I always wanted a Corvette. Quite a departure from the Wrangler. Hopefully one day I will find myself owning a diesel Wrangler in the near future.

Nice upgrade! The GS is a nice choice over the Z06 just watch your rims. They are known for cracking!

Yeah, I know. Seems like every car made today has an Achilles heel. Lol

Very true. Sad part is that with all that can go wrong cracked wheels shouldn't be on the list.It apparently only effects the GS & Z06 C7's. Easy fix with a wheel swap but it shouldn't even be an issue. Having owned 7 it is still a hell of a car for the money!!

I’m already saving for forged wheels. I’m not sure if I should laugh or cry about the situation. Lol

LOL! Worth the peace of mind and maybe sell the originals to recoup some of the cost. In the meantime just enjoy it before Winter!!

Jeepless at the moment.
Nice ride!
I had a 16 Z06. GS is only an upgrade if you think it is which is fine. The Z was amazing too.

I can’t stop contemplating the new vette. I am going to wait for a hi-po model to be released before I jump though.
