I asked him if he would help to name our car. He was very honored to do so. Not sure if anyone else has.

This was a very historic event being that the largest auto maker had to file for bankruptcy and came out of it so quickly! I guess that makes my car historic too! Any GM folks out there able to give input would be appreciated!
I've always thought it was cool that I actually took possesion of my car on the day GM filed.

Hows THAT for keeping the faith?

Me too. Ordered Oct 2008, born 4-28-09, delivered & in garage 6-1-09!!

My wife asked me if I was sure about this. I said "Are you kidding me? Look at this car- it's a work of art!!" Was not worried at all, not even for a second.

As far as adding value? I say zero just because it was built in that timeframe.

I almost cancelled to buy a used Vette but I'm glad now that I had faith in GM and held out for mine to be built!

Monetary value = $0, Historic value = PRICELESS!

Why did it take so long to be delivered?

Mine was built post bankruptcy but I still have the GM chicklets and the General Motors Performance Division tag underhood.
