I have not had the vette in yet, but I recently took the wife's 2000 Honda and all they do on the newer cars is plug a cable in to your diagnostic port and you are out of there in a few minutes. There is no tradmill test or exhaust sniffing.

I took my 97 in in 2000 and it passed with flying colors. They wouldn't put it on the rollers (Owings Mills) because it was too low - I think the retaining rollers would have hit the car. They just put a sniffer on it and had me keep it revved to 2000RPM for about 90 seconds.
I went back in 2002 and they told me the car was too low to the ground and gave me an exemption for 2 years. I think there was a dip in the pavement that I let my front tires sit in and the front air dam was very close to the ground.

I took my 98 in late last year & they wouldn't put it on the rollers (Beltsville) because it was too low. They gave me an exemption for 2 years. I did not even get a tailpipe sniffer test.
