My daily commute is on I-65 north of Bowling Green. Twice this week I have passed transporters of yellow C6 coupes headed south on I-65 in the direction of the plant. One of these coupes had a black hood accent but I cannot say the others had a similiar treatment. No other graphics have been visible. Anyone know why 20 yellow coupes would be headed south in the direction of Bowling Green and the plant?

Doesn't GM have a hidden developement lab/ workshop in the detroit area
just for Corvette developement?? Perhaps some prototypes on the way back to Bowling Green for rework or ???
Just a thought

Wait a minute I think BLACK is the next coat to be sprayed on these Vettes (cause yellow & red makes orange).

That proves NOTHING, Marshall!
Mike...were the transporters full, or did they have an open spot or two? If there was an empty space, they may have just delivered to a Dealer just North of the plant, and then turned back for more deliveries south...it could happen, if those particular colors,or particular cars, were destined for specific outlets at specific times....who knows?
This could be interesting...

Completely full. A total of ten yellow coupes on each transporter. I emailed the plant in the hopes of getting an explanation but have not yet received a reply.

None today (Friday).

Or maybe the dealer returned them cause they were the wrong color.
