    Tire Shortage for C7's

    I replaced the OEM PSS (not bad that I got 30k out of them) with a set of AS4s. I've been looking to replace the tires since February; would have preferred the PS4s or PSSs but stock is very low and I needed to replace the dangerously worn out OEMs. I can tell you that the grip off the line is...

    Mobile 1 oil change

    Once on my 2006 Z51. Never again-felt so nervous. Ottawa dealer has dedicated staff who only work on Corvettes. 1st paid fluid change on 2016 z51 cost me $310 tax-in for Mobile 1. Go with the other oil brand and you could save over $100.

    Happy Birthday, Jaybonn.

    Thanks. If you look really closely at the picture you can see that the Vette is hibernating under the cover...many more weeks before awakening the beast.

    More noises

    SN-III, I experienced the same issue with the hissing sound under the hood like water dropping and hitting a hot surface. It carried on for about a minute after turning off the car. Seems like the car has a sweaty time in very hot weather. I'm gonna keep an eye on this and have it noted during...

    More noises

    Please let me know if dealer finds anything. I experienced the same thing when parking the car in my garage after a long drive home sitting in heavy traffic with the AC and cooling seat running. I thought it was related to the cooling system.

    First out of storage

    OMG!!! Been out cruising here in Ottawa since last Saturday. Having so much fun I forgot to post my unleashing of the beast!!! The exhaust note has changed again after only 4400km. Pop Pop Gurgle Gurgle. Much different than the Borla Sport on my last 2006 Z51 and closer to the sound of the...

    First out of storage

    This is the first day of the New Year that I really, really, really got anxious about being behind the wheel of my 2016 LBR vette. My daily winter vehicle (2011 Honda Odyssey) is such an extreme opposite of what’s hidden under the car cover in my garage. Now and then, particularly when the...

    WANTED!!! 2017 GS any dealer with allocation please PM

    Thanks RC Mike. I opted for a new 2016 Z51 in LBR, 2LT, manual with Kalahari leather, carbon flash spoiler and mirrors, navi, transparent roof, etc. back later in August 2016. Toronto dealer gave me almost what I paid for 5 years ago on my used 2006 trade in. Got a decent if not good discount...

    C7 Manual or Automatic

    Congrats BBb. Ur VIN# was on my list of negotiation but I went with M7 instead from a Toronto dealer that had on the lot what I built online a year ago. You got a great car and slightly better deal than me. However, my deal two months ago included an excellent discount including 0% financing. I...

    C7 Manual or Automatic

    Welcome to the forum. I'm from Ottawa but bought mine last month from Wilson Niblett in Richmond Hill. They claim to be the highest volume Corvette dealer. I also struggled between manual and auto. Had a c6 manual for 5 years and loved it even though it was stubborn to downshift at times. I...
