The destination charge is the same price regardless of where the car is delivered in the US. This charge is to get the car from the plant to the delivery point (dealer, museum, etc.). The R8C Museum Delivery option has nothing to do with the destination charge. This charge is to take possession of your car at the museum and the events of the day that go along with it. Your car will go through PDI (pre delivery prep) at the museum and these people only prep Corvettes. If there is an issue with the car they contact the plant (across the street) and either someone comes to the museum, or the car goes back over to the plant for the correction. You will also have a delivery tech (my term, not sure it is accurate) that will be with you for the entire day. It is your day and he is there to make sure that you see everything that you want to see, within reason. That will include touring the museum, as well as a VIP tour of the plant. The plant tour differs from a normal plant tour. You are one on one with your tech and you can take as much time inside the plant as you want. Again, it is your day. Once back at the museum, the tech will go over the features on your car and how they operate. Pay close attention, because it is a lot to take in. I probably retained about 20% of what he gave me, but when I got home and went through the manual sitting in the car, as I found something new, a lot of the time, it was stuff that he had covered with me, but I just forgot.
So, the two charges are for very different things. There are people that will refuse to pay the price for the museum delivery and that is their choice. But, if I had it to do over again, I would do it again in a heartbeat! My wife and I had a great experience with our Museum delivery last December on our new vert!
