Did he say his customer shot the video? No, he said he sent him the link.

Very cool! I hope Nat Geo does a full episode of Ultimate Factories on the C7 production like they did the C6 Z06.

Default Strange

Strange... at 5:41. the silver vette behind the one testing the rear wheels has black side mirrors, but a silver rear spoiler...didn't know they offered that combination.. I thought you had to get both side mirrors and rear spoiler black if you took that option.

Never mind.. with a closer look it looks like the spoiler is black and covered with some type of protective cover.

Great observation

This video was a lot to take in, and it's shear awesomeness helped calm me... Some of those black cars looks absolutely amazing. I look forward to bringing my black beauty home

Man that 6:10 went by fast, hated to see it end. I could watch that process for hours.
Thanks for sharing
