Default Museum Delivery or Not

If I opt for the Museum Delivery at $950 will that negate the destination charge of $995?

Hey OP, turn this into a poll and this could be a useful thread.

How many will opt for R8C Museum Delivery @ $990?

1 Yes
2 No

Museum delivery is $495. With plague it's $995

Destination charge has no barring on museum delivery. Everyone has to pay it, like it or not.

Can you get the museum delivery without getting the plaque?

R8C has always been the RPO for the museum delivery and on the price sheet it has the R8C at $995.

R8C by itself is $495. Confirmed by Ken and Mike F. - R8C with CFX is $995. (CFX is the plague for the dash)

When you get the R8C by itself, you get the plague from the museum in the mail to hang on the wall. If you buy the CFX, the plague is put in the car below the radio on the dash near the shifter. It also has the VIN number and your name on it.

They are two different packages....

I don't want my name on the plaque. Someone may see it and burn it.

It's expensive but it's one of those once in a lifetime deals. I'm dying for a cross country trip. Seeing America on the open road in a brand new custom made Vette --- pretty amazing stuff.

I'm hoping they put the stock plaque in the glovebox so when I sell the car, I can keep the plaque. For $500 we should get both.

The plaque must be gold at that price. Gold is currently down, does that mean the plaque will cost less?

The confusion about the R8C has been addressed at the bash, and cleared up. There is only one R8C museum delivery and it costs $990. It includes the plaque, and you can not separate the dash plaque from the museum delivery to get a cheaper price of $495.

Reason, no one would get the plaque. They priced the delivery out of desirability. If you purchase from a forum dealer it is cheaper to have the car shipped. Price change pending???
