"Evry GM car" is less typing than "every model produced by GM" likewise "All corvettes not just the z06" is less typing than "Each variant of the Corvette, the coupe, fastback and z06...." but I have to think the second phrase is what they have in mind in each case.

I mean Bowling Green turns out what a couple hundred per day? Their test track would be pretty busy.....

Duh
fair enough, but yeah they make about 35,000 vettes a year. So let alone how impractical/unnecisary it would be to do this to each and every one, GM is also WAY too cheap to coduct that kind of Q+A, hel I dont know any car manufacturer that would.

Corvettes to me are like Pam Anderson. all of the features are there, and I know that I should be attracted to them, but for some reason Im not.

I took my buddies procharged Z06 out a couple months back. VERY fast, but still left me with the feeling of meh. Honestly, I cant say why
