Sigh. They saved a few bucks by rebuilding, but they LOST tens of thousands from having to buy the car back and slap a lemon title on it (by my calc they stand to lose about $35K on the buy back) not to mention the grief I had to go through and basically lose me as a future customer forever.
Nice job GM.

I would think you are, but get this spread out on as many forums as you can. I'm certain that there are many considering moving on to a Corvette, but your experience may bring them doubts; not so much on the car, but the treatment by GM of its customers.
