Ron Fellows
I was on the Ron Fellows website and they promote the special price for new 2015, 16 & 17 Corvette owners. When I called, they said the special was only for 2016 or 2017. The person on the phone wasn't very helpful so I sent them an email explaining the website - phone call difference. No one has responded.
Has anyone with a new 2015 received the discount? Anyone have a contact there to help?
My 2015 was a brand new purchase in April 2016.
I was going to put a group together, but now having second thoughts.
Thanks,
Al

The discount should apply to any new C7 purchase and must be used within the first year of ownership. Not sure about year limitations. Just email Donna and see what she tells you.

See the link from Spring Mt. below, which clearly states it covers 15-17 models:
If your 2015 is truly a new car, you should receive the 2-day school for $1K, which is a bargain. Just call them back, I'm sure it's a misunderstanding.

The year offer also has somewhat of a soft expiration. I think my dad's had expired a few weeks before we scheduled, but they still let him go for the discount. I think it's up to GM, but if you're a little late to the party, it's worth calling and asking.

I am very interested in going in spring/summer..... but I see the two day listed on the website. I thought I heard that you could pay additional and pick up a 3rd day. Anyone have information on that? Perhaps I just need to call.

I believed eve you are right. My understanding is that they will just invoice you for the 3rd day. By all means, do the 3rd day. Can't stress that enough.

This one has changed at least once since inception. I added a third day but that was in 2014, and I heard it's changed since though. It's best just to call (or PM their account shown above) and get the real scoop.

Pretty sure the 3 day upgrade is over like others have said. They still have a level one and level two 3 day course, but it's not cheap. I get emails about them once in awhile. Wish I could afford it.

No third day
I booked the Corvette Owners School in 10/15 & completed the program in 3/16. I inquired about the third day option at the time I booked it and was advised that they had discontinued offering it as an option for the Corvette Owners School. Unless they've more recently revised their policy, the third day option on the program is not available.

To have any chance of getting a discount on the 3 day class you'll probably have to specifically try to enroll in a "Level 1" class. If you look at the schedule you'll see that they have a LOT of 2 day owner classes, and probably no room in the schedule just to make a 3rd day available when requested. There aren't a lot of Level 1 classes though, but there is one open in Feb it appears.
I was lucky enough to be able to do the 3 day class back in 2014, and I can't recommend the 3rd day highly enough if you're really interested in performance. That being said, we had about 1/3 of our class leave after the second day, and they were VERY happy with the 2 day experience.
Cheers,
Rusty

^^^ As of last year, Chevy had discontinued allowing the discount to be applied to the three day class.
