Default 1000+ 2015 Corvettes waiting to be released

I live in Nashville and decided to go look thru the fence at the Bowling Green Plant to see my 2015 Z51 Cpe which was built on 8/15.

Here's a quick clip of what 1000+ 2015 Corvettes look like waiting to be released to their owners.

Hey! I think I see Mine!

At least there are some loaded on trucks. Where they are going is anyone's guess.

That's a lot of white C7s!!!

Since you live in Nashville, go down to the lot in Nashville and see if you see the same trailers down there.

They are going to unwrap them and let us run them around the track at the museum next week. Then they will send them on to their rightful owners.

I will have to check with my dealer to see if I can keep the white cover.

They are yours to keep. It seems that most owners don't.

They look cool from a distance, but the reality is that they are usually pretty dirty when they arrive at the dealer, and they are rather complicated to reuse as a storage cover...

That's a lot of Vettes for a lot of anxious new owners. Hope they release them soon.

I think they can also hold quit a few at the train loading terminal in Toledo.
