So, if I understand this correctly: Chevrolet will stop building Corvettes from Dec 23rd until March 09, so they just announce a new option for Corvette (that they are not building)?

Looking at it another way...chevy has confidence that Corvette orders (and production) will continue into calendar year '09.

Another way to look at it, the marketing department, never communicates with the production control department, does not know what is happening, does not read any newspapers or use the "net"

Just a guess...

This is very likely, many of the automated updates that I get for the Chevy Volt are out of date or don't make much sense. But that communication issue is quite common throughtout the business world

How much is this option? Are there any pics? What did they do to cut weight?

Thanks in advance for your support of the Corvette Forum.
