•Enhanced Theft-Deterrent Package

Bulos · 03-29-2014, 05:53 PM

Enhanced Theft-Deterrent Package is listed as an option for the 2LT does the 1LT have an alarm or any theft - deterent equipment? This and the Color Head-Up Display are the only 2 parts of the 2LT package that appeal to me question is though is it worth 4K+ over the 1 LT?

I also like the auto-dimming mirrors, and the ventilated seats as well. The HUD is something I thought was a nice thing to have, but now I can't imagine the car without it. So it really depends on what your wallet can handle. I had the same conversation with myself about 2LT to 3LT... and decided on the 3LT.

The most dangerous thing about the 2LT is that it opens up a bunch of extra available options that might further harm your wallet

Nav, CF dash, etc etc.

I went with the 2LT over the 1LT cuz of the extra options and thought it was well worth the money.

I didn't go with the 3LT cuz it only had 3 more options than the 2LT and IMO wasn't worth the extra money for faux napa leather, suede leather inserts on the seats, doors, dash, & roof.

It would be nice if Chevy made options available outside of specific packages that way one could truly build a car to their liking. HUD is a perfect example. I would like to have that but in South Florida heated seats is not really a consideration.

But the vented seats would be great in South Florida.

2LT is the sweet spot both moneywise and option wise… In terms of value… And all a carte ordering for options, is not an option for a volume car, from manufacturing standpoint, no one is doing it .....it's all packages

C7 is a volume car.

Only 14/day come off the line and it takes 3 days from start to finish to build each one according to GM.

18.5 per hour so 10 hour shift = 185 per day.

22 hours from start to roll-off, the equivalent of three eight hour shifts.

Corvette Assembly is a five day eight hour day work week plant which is currently working two hours of overtime many days to meet demand.

From what I've heard, the only differences that the Enhanced Theft Deterrent Package gives you is

1. Tilt Sensor - In case someone tries to tow your car
2. Interior Motion Detector - In case you leave your windows down or top off and someone tries reaching into your car

During our tour of the plant, they were completing ~150 cars a day. My vette took 1 and a half days to build (make it though the line), Dec 3-4.

I am thinking 150 would be production for an eight hour day.
