Gotta say I really don't care for the new vette. The outside is sharp looking - while looking more like a McLaren supercar than any Vette.

It's the interior that is an ergonomic disaster. That ridiculous center console with a line up of some thirty odd button and switches.

And that paint color - what guy wants a 'baby blue' paint job. That's a chicks color choice.

I would just wait for the car dealership to acquire my prize because that is just one beauty of a sex machine in that picture. Hey, besides i would be grateful in the first place i won 250k and the car was a icing on the top. i would not take the 107k just me though ever one is entitled to, each his own. 250k i'd be just fine with that.

LOL good one. Glad I'm not the only one who would rather have $$$ than a vehicle.

I thought about that after I posted. But thankfully we have posters like you who pretend to be SO SMART to help us out. Have you thought of GA working directly with the manufacture GM to build a car to his specifications. Or putting the model Corvette specs in the games rules. The customer must then accept a yellow Corvette or cash equivalent. Todd should really ban you for a while. I'd sign that petition.

Why should he have to pay USA Federal and State income taxes on more than MSRP,

Why would you think he has to?

next time secure the vehicle before offering the prize.

Right, because the winner will definitely want whatever car a random dealership has. It's not like people getting 80 to 100 thousand dollar cars have a preference for a particular color, or any of the other options that are available. At least he wouldn't have to worry about getting one with one of the transmission mode... [ More ]

The Lottery would award him a Corvette valued up to $107,000. Kahler would then receive the difference between the final cost of the car and the remaining $107,000.

I would be at that junkyard looking for a Corvette and pocketing the difference.....

JuJu stole the corvette as payback for losing to the Cleveland Browns. LOL

Bleudog101 . Hopefully, the other gambling opportunities offering a vehicle learn from this mistake, since it is such an imposition/deflation to the winner.

I think the winner is right. Why should he have to pay USA Federal and State income taxes on more than MSRP, when Master Chevrolet has indicated that they would charge a fair amount to backorder (isn't it sad that he had to call a few places to even get this deal on a prize!)? If there is some unknown deal between the Georgia Lottery and... [ More ]

As long as The Georgia Lottery ponyed up the $250,000 in cash, I'd have no problem waiting to take delivery of the Vette. G5

When the casinos (pre Covid) would have a car to give away, the actual vehicle was there. This seems like an honest mistake or not forethought that they all sold out.

By Kate Northrop

A Georgia man who won the top prize of a C8 Corvette in a scratch-off lottery game is having trouble claiming his prized car, as the Georgia Lottery is unable to locate a car to award him.

Dennis Kahler did not get what he bargained for after playing and winning the Corvette and Cash scratch-off game for $5. After discovering that his ticket would earn him the top prize of $250,000 plus a Corvette, the Georgia Lottery found itself in a bind when it could not locate a singl... [ More ]
