I found 14 dealers in the St. Louis area and 7 dealers in the Kansas City area that will be getting C7's from the first production run.

I see you have 8 dealers around Bowling Green selling C7's, if you include Nashville(short drive down I-65, as you know). Even the small town of Hopkinsville.

I agree... however, can't you just send an email or make a phone call? Is that too much to ask? I asked several times in phone calls and emails directly to their sales group on their website.


Is a "thank you for your interest and we'll get back to you" too difficult to type?

And, that isn't exactly true. I contacted Mike a month ago and got a lot of information in about 5 minutes. Put a deposit down immediately and never worried about it again.

It lists ALL Chevy dealers. Since only 900 nationwide out of 4,300 are getting INITIAL allocations, it is messed up somehow.

There are a few dealers in my area not on the list. Looks like dealers with decent population around them managed to sell 4 Corvettes in 2012 but rural dealers were pretty much left out.

It has two boxes that can be checked off. One for all Chevrolet dealers and the other for just the dealers that will receive Corvettes from the initial production.

When I ran my zip code(65801) it only showed two dealers out of seven that are in a 35 mile radius of my zip code. I double checked for other Chevrolet dealers in other Zip codes some 75-100 distance and none of them showed up.

When I ran my zip code(65801), most of the chevy dealers in my very rural part of Missouri and also in Arkansas were not listed, so I believe the site was functioning correctly.

What zip code did you use?

It makes sense now. I wasn't aware that the eligible 900 dealers only sold a minimum of 4 or more in all of 2012. Needless to say, there are no "small" Chevy dealerships in metropolitan Phoenix--- the 6th largest city in the US

You should have a bunch showing up, with you living in Phoenix. When I ran a St Louis zip code, 14 dealers in and around St Louis, showed up as having allocations, but when I ran the zip code of small towns around the state that have a Chevrolet dealer, those dealers didn't show up.

The guy that lives in Ely, NV, is going to have to drive a ways to get his Corvette(or a Chevrolet, period).
