It's like a minnie Museum Delivery program for your existing car. I got my car late last year, (slightly used), and my wife suggested this. The kids are actually calling it a Corvette Baptism

Check it out here: NCM Experience

What's your thoughts if you have done it.

^^^^ The VIP tour is definitely worth it...but book now because plant is closing soon for overhaul.
Save the money on the experience and book the NCM track time.
We did VIP tour and track - both sitting in passenger seat with pro driver and then lead / follow behind the pro in our own C7.
yeah, that's the ticket...in my view.

The fee covers up to 7 people we got with some fellow forum members and split the cost 3 couples under $70 per couple. Well worth the extra $$ tour ended up too short in the museum as we asked too many questions. When we go back will do it again.

looks like a not to be missed experience. Wish we lived closer. Would be quite a trip from Washington state to NCM and back

Depending on how good of a job they do cleaning the car it might be worth it for this alone.
Sounds like fun!

Gee, I guess I should ask for a refund since they screwed up my neck tag and door sticker they put on my car!

So which is it?

Experience, as stated on the web site several times, as quoted.
Xperiance, which is what I replied to, or
Xperience, which is on your tag. Is this a multi-lingual program or what?

Nope, apparently it's an English lesson for me.
