My daily commute is on I-65 north of Bowling Green.  Twice this week I have passed transporters of yellow C6 coupes headed south on I-65 in the direction of the plant.  One of these coupes had a black hood accent but I cannot say the others had a similiar treatment.  No other graphics have been visible.   Anyone know why 20 yellow coupes would be headed south in the direction of Bowling Green and the plant? 

Rejects.

Wait a minute I think BLACK is the next coat to be sprayed on these Vettes (cause yellow & red makes orange).

I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

That proves NOTHING, Marshall!




Mike...were the transporters full, or did they have an open spot or two? If there was an empty space, they may have just delivered to a Dealer just North of the plant, and then turned back for more deliveries south...it could happen, if those particular colors,or particular cars, were destined for specific outlets at specific times....who knows?
This could be interesting...

Completely full.  A total of ten yellow coupes on each transporter.  I emailed the plant in the hopes of getting an explanation but have not yet received a reply.

srj jr here... just saw half a truck load of yellow 08's tonight(tuesday) in Manchester Tn,  about 140 miles south of Bowling Green.  The driver was staying at a Ramada Inn, sooo, i decided to go investigate.  The yellow's had a black stinger type paint job on the hood, and partially on the roof(best i could see).. and had a fender badge ZHZ,  sooo did a little online snooping,  come to find out, these are for Hertz rental agencies... the ZHZ, HZ standing for Hertz(if you are familiar with the measurement Hertz, its abbreviated HZ..(those of you that aren't familiar with the measurement of Hertz, well.. its a unit of cylcle, such as AC current is at 60 Hertz per second, meaning it alternates back and forth 60 times a second...), anyhow, just thought i'd help out with the scooby doo mystery.. :)

We may have a winner!
The only thing I could find for Hertz using Corvettes was for Convertibles, tho.
This does seem to be the answer to the mystery, anyway!
Thanx Jimmy!

Now I wonder what Hertz will charge to rent one for an hour.

______________

YELLOW CORVETTE CONVERTIBLE WITH ALL THE FEES IS $274.99 PER DAY FROM HERTZ. MINIMUM AGE TO RENT IS 25 AND MUST MEET QUALIFICATION CRITERIOR.  LOOKS LIKE THE C3VR SLUETHS SOLVED THE MYSTERY.

C6 Registry discount.

I took these pix back in late August while in Sunny CA and I'm fianlly getting around to uploading on my day off.  Here is one of them fancy ZHZ Hertz rental Corvettes. http://www.C3VR.com/member_uploads/9201_9300/9258/ZHZ-Vette-Front.JPG http://www.C3VR.com/member_uploads/9201_9300/9258/ZHZ-Emblem.JPG Sorry the quality isn't better.  This is from my super-high function credit card sized camera I bought off e-bay for $20!
