My TPW was 10-5 and changed to 10-2, we showed up for the buyers plan at 2:30 and unfortunantly changed again to 10-5 It was fine with us. Got to take a private 2 hour tour on Friday and then start again at 6 on Monday. I will say the first couple hours are a little boring. But after that It was awesome. My tour guy was Pete A. He was the greatest. Our car was about 5 cars from starting trim at the start of the day and finished by the end of the day. Only 2 were completed after ours. I was really hoping for completion on Monday as were were in bowling green for 4 days. The Plant employees were wonderful thanking us at almost every step.
We also bought the Photo Album and hopefully will get in a few weeks.
Now for the wait for delivery. I was told probably less that 2 weeks.
NRB Convertible , chrome wheels non Z51 with Mag ride. The museum send us a few photos but I cat figure out how to upload here.

Just learned to read my vin. My z51 is production #8,108. I'm surprised they've already built over 8k in the few months they have been making '16s.
Anyone have a lower production number than 8,108 for this production week?

When I attempt to activate On Star via the call center I will post whether I was successful.

Received an email from Tracy (@ MacMulkin Chevrolet) this morning. She said, "Your Corvette is on its way from Kentucky to Ohio. I will let you know once it gets on the next rail." 
That is my Incentive to complete my garage project before my new baby's arrival.

Well I'm starting to wonder if my car was rejected by QC... I've emailed Tracy twice and called her but I haven't heard anything from her. My order was in before yours so Idk why else it wouldn't be on the train...

Don't read too much into why mine left Bowling Green and yours may have not left yet. There is NO rhyme or reason to the entire shipment process. Heck, yours could leave days after mine but it can be loaded onto the next train out of Toledo Ohio before mine.

Just seems the first car off the line should be the first on the train, especially when it's typically 3+ weeks between trains

Congrats Tom!
Just heard from Tracy this morning that my car is also on the train with Maxies, not sure why she didn't let me know yesterday with him, but whatever who cares, it's on the train!

My dealer told me the same thing 10-11, but he said they don't ever deliver their cars on sunday. So maybe it will be the 12th
