"The last C6 rolls off the line at 8:04 a.m. and I’ll have people in here at 8:30 a.m. to start tearing down and putting in new tools,” Tatman said."
That is awesome, bring that C7 to life!!! |

I think it's amazing that they're going to change over the entire plant to C7 production in 4 WEEKS! Good luck - I'm sure it's a huge undertaking.

The last C6 being a 427 Convertible will certainly increase it's value. I am sure that someone has already spoken for the car. The last car is almost as valuable as the first car.

When will the first C7 really roll-off the line?
I have not seen any discussion about this 4 week turnaround, training, etc. Everyone is still talking 3rd quarter, but the C6 and C5 were rolling off the factory line in just a few months. I think we will see new C7s in June. Someone on the line should know for sure. Anyone think the same as I do?
