C6 Pilot Vehicles
There are two 2005 Corvettes currently listed on ebay with RPO WD1, same seller.
vin: 309, build: 7/21/04
vin: 764, build: 8/16/04
WD1=pilot vehicle.
Anyone else have a pilot car?
Any differences noticed from non-pilot cars?

Thats a good question........I do not know what a Pilot vehicle is. 45 people have read this too. At first I thought you were buying a Honda Pilot. They are a nice riding SUV.

Pilot Definition
A saleable pilot is final build verification. The verification is manufacturing and assembly plant related not product. By definition these are not hand builds as described in previous post, that would defeat the purpose of a pilot build.,
A non saleable pilot is the same as above but with out production capable process's.
Pilot build is nothing special other than a slow manufacturing line speed.
Mule vehicles do not have vin #'s

Some pre-production cars do not have a valid VIN and/or may not be certified, and can not be sold.
