I wish I could too. That Stingray in the showroom was beautiful. MSRP was $60K

GunnyG · 12-27-2013, 05:28 PM

And a Z51 at that! That's awesome!

They truely are. My father and I went up and took a tour of the factory up in Bowling Green and that was just awesome! I highly recommend that tour if you have never been. I cant wait to take another trip up there!

My son and I went on the tour and watched the C5 being built. My wife and I stopped there in 2012 on the way back from picking up our Camaro at Rodgers Chevrolet but just missed getting in on the last tour of the day. Now you have to make reservations in advance to guarantee a spot. But I am hoping to go again one day.

My buddies and I did it in '08. It was neat.

I went and did the Mercedes tour near Tuscaloosa, AL a few weeks ago. Because of the way Mercedes is set up, you don't get to really walk the entire line kind of like you do at the Corvette plant. I would say that the Corvette plant is a better experience. I'd like to go back for sure.

OP. great pic of the vette and your daughter. you very lucky!
i toured the vette plant in Bwling Green back in 2001. was cool, then when we left i was ready to buy one!

kevinw · 12-27-2013, 08:48 PM

BigPopa71 · 12-27-2013, 09:04 PM

Awesome ride

Camarodriver2 · 12-27-2013, 09:15 PM

Nice vette for your daughter!

About the real Stingray - I would have designed:

1) All vents and scoops without the black plastic inserts.
2) Fuel filler in the top driver "scoop".
3) Lowered by 1" all 'round.

What's the offsets on those wheels
And will they fit on the G5 .
