Default Configure your 2006 Corvette online now

Just went to the GM Corvette website and you can now configure your 2006 Corvette.

Interesting notes. Unless its going to be added, at this time no NAV option on the C6 coupe.

On the Z06 they make the Bose an separate option ($1700) and the NAV is ($3300).

Also I thought on-star was standard on the 06

Does this mean that pricing is now in GM Autobook?

Thanks, been waiting for that to happen. Wonder why it takes them so long?

Thanks, just did mine.

$65800.

So, we will see if my "GMBUYPOWER" dealer responds when he takes note of my only special instruction:

"Do not contact me unless the car can be purchased at this price -- no dealer add-ons, accessories, or 'market adjustment'. Thank you."

It's confusing. It makes it look like you don't get lamps or headlights unless you get the 3LT package.

Could someone post a link? I went to "chevrolet.com", selected "2006", and still no "corvette". I must be in the wrong place.

They don't have it set up that way yet. Go to www.chevrolet.com, select cars, select Corvette, select "build you own" and it will pre-populate the drop down with 2006, Corvette, etc....

Have fun!

Try it again. If not, try going just to "corvette".

Default Nav?

No Nav package listed! Mistake (go GM!) or availability problem (go GM!)?
Seriously, aren't these guys embarassed to screw up so often? They remind me of our local weatherman. I'd like to have a job where I could screw up so often and not get fired. Maybe I'll run for mayor of New Orleans.

Still not working for me. Maybe my browser is taking me to a cached page. I will try again.

I probably sent out over 400 e-mails from GM buypower to different dealers and I also told them not to respond if they don't accept my offer but about 95% still responded. One person actually told me that they are required to respond by GM no matter what.

I can see the 2006 pricing info on gmbuypower, but still only see 2005 pricing info for corvette on chevrolet.com. Oh well, no big deal since I found it on gmbuypower.

I can't get it to work either. Once I get the pull-down for '06 cars, there is no Corvette listed!
