Not to my knowledge, but when I am driving over 90MPH I certainly feel like it wants to fly.

Number 6000 has disappeared probably never to be found but there is a Corvair w/ a VIN OF6xxxx on display at the Corvair Museum in Ypsilanti, MI. An anomaly if there ever was one since Chevy then as now did not build a vehicle unless there was a dealer order for it.

In 1969 the last Corvair (#6000) was scheduled to roll off the line. The press corps was present and the time arrived to start the engine and drive it the last few feet, off the line.

You guessed it: the last Corvair to actually be assembled, did not start. That was #6000, and it has truly disappeared from history.

I could not help myself, I had to post this. If there is any question, I am a Corvair fanboy.

laborsmith - memories. Technically speaking my one and only car accident was in a Corvair, when I was 10. Playing in the car, I hit the emergency brake and got it out of gear. I managed to roll it down a short hill, int the side of the house. Not a fun day!!!

Becky - picked my Stingray up from my dealer last Friday - of course, it's everything we've heard it would be. Thanks sooo much for keeping me informed of my order status once it hit 1100 - you're the BEST

My code is RHMS0S(Florida) My status was 3400...Dealer contacted me yesterday saying that my car was being prepared to be shipped, however I also receceived the message below from: Chevrolet Marketing Team...Can someone please give me an update, I am so confused right now.
your order has been placed by your dealership and accepted by Chevrolet. The next step in the process will be the assignment of a Target Production Week (TPW.) However, at this time a TPW has not been established for this order. Our resources indicate there are specifics on this vehicle that are on back order, which are expected to take longer then four weeks to remedy the hold. You may contact us sporadically for updated information.


We appreciate your patience and recognize the high amount of anticipation for the 2014 Corvette Stingray.

Thank you for contacting Chevrolet!
