Default FedEx just arrived with my gift-Thanks Chevrolet

I just received my package that Chevy is sending to new Corvette C7 owners. My car is # 1239 and I took delivery September 4th.

It has been discussed on the forum already but it is a nice classy black box with a tan leather pouch, a nice letter addressed to me from Chevy along with an artsy booklet about the C7.
It is a nice gesture from Chevrolet and I appreciate them going to the effort and expense to do it. The pouch looks good and is residing in my glove box now with the warranty books in it.

Bought mine 2/1/14 and so far have gotten squat from GM or dealer.

Update: Got my present yesterday (5/27/14). I wasn't really expecting it because I bought from the dealer stock, as opposed to ordering.

I got mine today. It has a gray pouch which is my leather color. It is a nice touch. I applied again for the NCM membership and will find out after a month whether it will happen.

I FILLED OUT THE CARD THAT CAME WITH MY CAR FOR FREE NCM MEMBERSHIP BUT FOUND OUT 4 MONTHS LATER THAT I DID NOT QUALIFY AS I WAS A CURRENT CORVETTE OWNER. I'M KIND OF EXPECTING THE SAME RESULTS THIS TIME.

Yours should be coming soon - you are 261 cars after mine.

Interestingly they are sending the pouch in the color of the interior of your car. Mine is Kalahari as was my pouch.

They should include a desk top model in the color of your car too.

Has anyone figured out if this is being sent only to owners who ordered their car or all owners?

Got my Stingray in early March and nothing from GM except 3 or 4 requests to complete a "buyers" survey.

Mine is VIN#45XX (sorry can't remember exactly).

Received mine about a week ago from FEDEX.

This is not my first brand new Vette and I got my C7 from a dealer lot (without going through the ordering system).
