Take delivery of your new 'Vette at the National Corvette Museum and become a part of automotive history.
See your car on the assembly line as it's being built, receive a photo album chronicling your Corvette's production, and drive your new ride off the museum floor fresh from the factory.
If you're buying a Corvette... this is the way to do it. This is the ultimate Corvette experience.
We are thrilled to offer the Museum Delivery program to new Corvette Owners. It is an adventure like no other and a memorable addition to your new Corvette purchase. Hundreds of enthusiasts take delivery of their new Corvette each year.
NCM Delivery is referred to as OPTION "R8C" and is available through Ross Downing Chevrolet at a minimal cost of $490. It must be specified at the time the order is finalized and a special Ship Code of "184590" must also be used to identify your Corvette for Museum Delivery.
After a target production week has been established, the National Corvette Museum will contact us here at Ross Downing Chevrolet and/or you, the customer, and offer a reasonable time frame in which you can choose a date for delivery.
This contact will normally occur approximately two weeks prior to the target production week allowing ample time for you to make travel arrangements. The Museum will confirm the date, agreed upon by you, in writing and will handle all further communications.
What to wear: Closed toe shoes (no sandals) are a requirement for all visitors to the plant. No cameras, backpacks, purses, fanny packs, or other packages or containers may be brought into the plant except by special request (for medical reasons, etc.). Cameras are welcome at the Museum.
You will arrive at the NCM and will be welcomed with signs commemorating the event. You will then be taken to the Corvette Assembly Plant (located across the street from the NCM) for your own NCM Delivery Team guided VIP tour (when available). Museum Delivery customers will be transported to the Corvette Assembly Plant for a tour in a GM courtesy vehicle. All non-GM vehicles driven by guests wishing to transport themselves is acceptable and has a designated area. View complete plant required guidelines here.
A personal, special VIP guided tour of the NCM is conducted where you will see your Corvette on display. Next, a member of the NCM Delivery Team provides a quality orientation followed by a thorough delivery presentation of your new Corvette. A unique gold decal is placed on the inside of the drivers door jamb to signify the importance of this memorable occasion.
You are also presented with an individual one year NCM membership.
