Default Museum Delivery

How the they schedule the museum deliveries? I mean, can you pick out the time of day you want to pick the car up and how long does the entire experience take?

Thank you...

Yes....after your order is accepted by GM the Museum will contact you to set a time (morning because to whole process takes several hours).
As the build date approaches they will give you a tentative date for delivery at the museum. I added a week to be safe. They understand most people work and need to plan their schedules accordingly.
They do a fantastic job!!

They have 2 "delivery" times they schedule each day (7:45 am and 10:30 - not sure if that time is correct). The entire process "can take up to 5 or 6 hours".

You can watch a delivery, live, by going to the NCM website and selecting one of their dedicated video feeds. I've watched several of them. Video quality isn't the best but you'll get the idea.

That's what they offered us. We took the 10:30 and did not leave the museum until late afternoon.

In October we took a 745 appt and with factory tour, museum tour and "tour" of new C7, we didn't leave museum until about 230pm. Great experience!
