Default CD Availability?

My ordered 'vert is supposed to be built this week, so I'm hoping to get "the call" from my dealer soon. This will be my first Corvette and I want to do everything right. Is it possible to get ahold of the instructional CD that comes with it ahead of time? The dealer couldn't help, just tells me that one and only one CD comes with each new car. I just want to get familiar as I can before driving home with my new baby. Can anybody help? Or is playing the CD at home after picking up my car easy enough?

Find someone locally who has the same year vette with the CD and either borrow it or ask them to make a copy.

If you have a CD burner and can burn an ISO image, have someone make an ISO image of the CD, then you can download it from them online and burn a copy.

I don't really remember the CD being all that helpful. Something to kill time with I suppose.

I think reading the owners manual would be more helpful. Owners manuals are available in the Corvette Forum's FAQ's area

In theory, it's posted at www.bowlinggreenassemblyplant.com

If you click on the C6 and choose "interactive instructions" it's supposed to have the basic and nav CD's there. But I can only get it to play the NAV instructions - not the basic ones.

I'd like to view the CD and DVD as well. I'll try to encode and post them when I get my car (hopefully in 3 weeks or so).

Thanks guys, I see that the manual in the FAQ section is 426 pages long! I'm sure EVERYONE reads it cover to cover.

I sent their webmaster a message about that not working right and got a typical 'thank you' type reply.
