No kidding. I could fly, pick it up and drive it back cheaper than the $1295 destination and delivery fee we are paying
This can be done when you custom order a vette. It’s “museum delivery”, where the corvette museum is across the street from the factory. You get admission for the day, special tour of the factory, etc. We did it for my dads vette in 2015.
BUT you still have to pay the standard delivery fee. Apparently (the way GM used to do it, maybe other OEMs too?) was the delivery fee was dependent on the distance from the factory which produced it (makes sense) - but the west coast made an uproar because they were always paying the highest fees (most factories were/are in the Midwest or south). So they changed it.
