In my case I went to 4200 from 4b00 in 3 days. Now lets hope that 4200 is to the dealer and not hell. I guess only time will tell that. Oh yea mine is torch red so if you want to drive up and see it when it arrives let me know

The shipping company can hold the car for up to 10 days while they try to fill a truck headed to a geographic region. After 10 days they have to ship it with or without a full truck.

When everything is running normally, cars can ship as early as the day they come off the line (depending upon the time of day) or up to 10 days later. It all comes down to how busy of a region (with respect to Corvette sales) the buyer lives in.

If you are Vin 160 and you are in the northwest and the car has been there over a month, I think the car has been in the lot over 10 days. Would it be really that hard to fill a truck to head up here. I know of 5 from MT. to Seattle that have cars coming. getting any info is impossible.
Any ideas????

Bill B said his dealer told him his car is headed to Billings three days ago, if that is true hopefully that truck is full and maybe headed Spokane and then to me in Seattle, my vin #368, CG Z51 been bayed for two weeks.

Average since launch:
to 4300/4200: 5 days
to 5000: 4 days

But that includes the exceptional stuff. I could run the numbers excluding them, however, it is sufficient to say on average non-exceptional (nashville) cars should be quicker.

I don't suppose this applies to the Nashville cars?
