Last week my dealer told me that even if I were to choose Museum delivery, GM will still include the $1200 delivery as well as the Museum deliver priced option. Has anyone else heard thus?

Yes, this has always been the case with museum delivery.
Every car has the same destination fee whether it is shipped across the country or across the street to the NCM. The NCM delivery cars still get covered and loaded on a transport truck.1966 coupe - Sunfire Yellow / Black

I'd be glad to drive it across the street for them and save the 1200 bucks.

It was a law passed by the U.S. Congress in 1978 after two years of lobbying by the National Automotive Dealers Association, that every dealer in the Continental 48 states pays the identical amount for transportation/delivery charges regardless of how close or how far the dealers was from the manufacturing facility.GBA Black; HTO Twilight/Tension interior; Z51 & Mag Ride; E60 lift; 5VM visible carbon fiber package; 5ZZ high wing; FA5 interior vis CF; ZZ3 engine appearance; 3LT; Q8T Spectra Gray Tridents; J6N Edge Red Calipers; SNG Edge Red Hashmarks; VQK Splash Guards; RCC Edge Red engine cover; VJR illuminated sill plates.

Doesn't seem fair since delivery on my 54 was $78. I wasn't born yet but that is what is on the original window stickerComment

You just proved NADA lobbying point, that in their opinion that it was unfair for those dealers who were 2,500 miles away to pay huge delivery costs, yet those across the street or across the state from the assembly plant were paying a pittance. The current law is not GM’s, nor NCM’s fault. Blame goes this time with you caused the law, e.g., NADA.GBA Black; HTO Twilight/Tension interior; Z51 & Mag Ride; E60 lift; 5VM visible carbon fiber package; 5ZZ high wing; FA5 interior vis CF; ZZ3 engine appearance; 3LT; Q8T Spectra Gray Tridents; J6N Edge Red Calipers; SNG Edge Red Hashmarks; VQK Splash Guards; RCC Edge Red engine cover; VJR illuminated sill plates.

Of course, the average annual family income back then was only $4200, which sort of puts things in perspective.Originally posted by ZORA 69 View PostDelivered 5/29!: Scarlet Fever 2021 2LT HTC, Red Mist Metallic Tintcoat, two-tone Natural w/ suede inserts, Mag Ride, Performance Exhaust
