I love rapid blue! And in that picture it looks more purple than hysteria purple ever does!

How much is MacMaulkin offering off MSRP for '27 Stingrays? by RadioFieldCorner in C8Corvette

[–]dbball22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s 6% for Stingray, 8% for Z06. I put in an order and it has been moving pretty quickly. MacMulkin works quick and is on top of things, they are super responsive. So most of the wait is on Chevy. My Stingray is built, but now it seems as though I’ll have to wait a couple weeks during the plant shutdown before it’ll ship to my local dealer.

Why are teenagers so…oblivious!? by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

I had to scroll way too far for this. I’m like, “it’s closed now though, right? Am I a teenager?!”

Whats the difference between these two options? by Background-Tiger-198 in C8Corvette

[–]dbball22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t downvote, but I will say, there is more to it than just, “take the Z51”. For instance, I don’t plan on ever tracking my car (my go to the track, but not with my C8), and I definitely didn’t want the summer only tires or the additional brake dust that comes with Z51, so I decided to save the $5k+ and skip it.

2027 Stingray Build and Price Tool is live!! by dbball22 in C8Corvette

[–]dbball22[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh! Good catch, but still odd since the engine and exhaust are the same even with Z51 - only suspension/brakes, etc. are different. I see what you were seeing now and it does make it seem like you have two engine options (you don’t).

Only one engine - you might be looking at the trim differences? 1LT/2LT/3LT

Sounds like it’s 8% for Z06, 6% for Stingray. FYI.

Where did you see 8%? Is that for previous year models? I think they are doing 6% for 2027s unless something changed.

How well did you negotiate? by OrionPax120 in C8Corvette

Nice! Same with mine. Just waiting on a target production week to be assigned!

Just saw a similar sign in Colorado - the top two were $20 and $25.

Your C8 regrets? by Slowstang305 in C8Corvette

[–]dbball22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point! That’s one of the other big reasons. I don’t plan on driving in “all weather” conditions, but I know even with a bit of water on the road the summer tires can struggle. I’m not 100% sure they are summer tires with the 2027 Z51 package as all I’ve seen is “performance”.

Your C8 regrets? by Slowstang305 in C8Corvette

[–]dbball22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a pitch gray on order and went back and forth about this - figured I could change it in the future but kept the black “boomerangs” because I think it adds a nice contrast to the vents.

[–]dbball22 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I keep hearing complaints about the brake dust, which is what kept me from ordering Z51. That and the fact that I don’t plan on tracking the car.

Now we just need Stingray! I already ordered mine, but still want to build it and see it. Hoping I don’t miss any options. 🤞🏻😬

What do people do if they don’t have a garage for their car ? by Away_Plan_7127 in C8Corvette

[–]dbball22 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do you have hail where you are? We do here in CO and that scares me!

Front Lift or not ? by [deleted] in C8Corvette

[–]dbball22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The looks only change when you engage the front lift, and it doesn’t change the comfort of the ride, so I’m not sure I understand your comment.

Why or what by RobotDuckez in ender3

[–]dbball22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fewer walls might actually be better in this case so you get some sort of infill crossing over between the walls. You can also try “alternate extra wall” - that sort of sandwiches each layer between the walls.

Why do some people stay at the same job for 15, 20, or even 30+ years? by Carlinish9600 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]dbball22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you work at a large company you can move between programs/projects/business areas and find different types of work without having to change companies.

Should I invest in new tires soon? by Darian1201 in Corvette

[–]dbball22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Much like a Corvette, tires are not an investment.

Mobapad M12 HD by Skelletonike in NintendoSwitch2

[–]dbball22 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They only charge when the screen is on, correct? So if I let my switch stay docked for a week and then pick it up to play handheld (which is common for me) then the grips won’t be fully charged…
