Rich,
I had the good fortune to start and drive a new Corvette off the assembly line at Bowling Green, Kentucky. I was over at the Corvette Museum and headed across for the 1.30pm tour. The plant is about 2 minutes away from the museum.
Being the only Australian there, I was a bit of a novelty and they had me start the car as it reached the end of the assembly line.
Oncstarted it then went onto a roller where all engine limits were tested etc.
The tour guide went on about how reasonable the Corvette was at $45,000. Mmm they sell for $150,000 here - amazing what stamp duty, import duty,customs will do to protect our local market..
