Beautiful car!
It's also about time that the magazines stopped being blue oval fanboys - great reviews.

GM sent this out to us about 3 weeks ago so he has had them for a while already, hopefully he has actually driven them.

My uncle went to his house for a BBQ and had a beer with him in his garage with all the Winston Cup trophies behind him. After he called me to tell me and I hung up on him.

Huh? He took 'delivery' at the GM plant a few weeks ago. Just now has he actually taken delivery at his dealership in NC.

I can't think of anyone else I would rather see getting VIN 00001 & 2 more than Rick Hendrick....the guy has been a part of Chevrolet Racing history for so long! Nice to see the first two delivered....liking the car more after every set of new pics!

Any idea how much he paid for them?
I "thought" I read something online that he paid $300K?!?

Rumors are great, but I am curious if anyone knows.
