How could one manual cover 2 different body styles, 2 different engines and 2 different years of build?

I just purchased a set from my local GMC dealer and he charged me $124.27 plus tax. The number on the back of the manuals are: GMP/08-Y-1 (2, 3). They are made by Helm, Inc.

The manuals are only for the 2008 Y-Car Corvette. Check with you local dealership, if you parchased the car from them (which I didn't), then you should be able to ask for a discount (which I asked for and got).

Hope that helps.
