Welcome aboard and congrats on the new vette order. MR is quickly becoming the "color of choice".

I tried to look at the VIP \ Buyers Tour link on:

http://www.bowlinggreenassemblyplant.com/

It appears the link is 'broken'.
I want to look into that.
I decided not to do Museum delivery... at least not this time.

Congrats! You will love the color.

I did the Buyer's Tour on 8/30 and NCM delivery on 9/14 for my Monterey Red 3LT, MX0, U3U, CC3, QX3, R8C. An experience my wife and I will never forget.

If the link for the Buyer's Tour is still unavailable to you call 1-800-205-4248 and ask to speak with either Lori Bieschke or Gary Cockriel. They can provide all of the details about the Buyers's Tour and R8C options and get you setup.

Miles of Smiles.

John

That's the link for the plant. The museum is the one that sets up the buyer's tour and the NCM delivery.
