Museum Delivery
Would like to say what a great experience the "Museum Delivery Option" is. Picked up our Victory Red Vert with cashmere. Had a 2 1/2 hour tour of the plant on July 1st (the day before thier two week vacation) and everyone in the plant was real cool. The people at the museum treat you like gold (make sure you tip them!!). Then a 20 hour trip home with my 12 year old son, through backroads (no highways) of Kentucky, West Virginia, Virginia then Pennsylvania.(No bra on car and not a single scratch.) To experience this with your child is priceless.
By the way the top was down the entire trip except for the sudden thunderstorm in Huntington WV at 10:30 pm. I couldn't figure out how to get the power top up for what seemed like forever, but was only maybe 30 seconds of drenching!!! (apply the parking break) Obviously I didn't spend any time figuring out the functions of the car before I hit the road!!! Once again I would recommend the delivery option to anyone! I Love this car man!!

Congratulations on your museum pickup. I picked mine up June 20. I had Kelly Boca with my delivery. Was supurb. Oh yes mine was a VR Convertible cashemere interior with a beige top. Wife and I headed east to South Carolina then up thru Myrtle Beach. Headed back home to Iowa. All in all it was a great week for us no problems with the car either.
Except we had to keep the top up most of the trip. We had to much luggage for top down.

Congrats!!!
I picked up my first corvette in early May at the NCM.
The delivery was AWESOME and it really made the first vette a perfect experience. I've been meaning to post a write up but have been very busy getting married going on honeymoon moving.... I'm getting way behind on all the pictures. Soon I'll post some.
Great trip.
The NCM Delivery team was fantastic and I'll definately be buying my next vette that way.
By the way I'm completely in love with my C6! The s2000 was a fantastic car but I honestly don't miss it at all. Even at the track the car is great fun to drive.
