Default Re: Got to drive my new C6 off the assembly line today

Mark, When I was the Vette Plant Tour, they were building some of the 1st ZO-6's that were earmarked for test purposes and engineering (not the normal dealer order cars). I was just a regular tour person, and had short misc conversations with a few of the workers.
I recall our tour guide saying that 17-18 Vettes were built per hour.....and the assy line moved at something like 1/2 mile per hour snaking for ?? miles around that HUGE building. You see a very limited amount of the actual assy being done, but very interesting none the less.
