I count 8 of us that jumped to 3100 on GM'ers list. The sales manager at my dealership told me on Monday afternoon that the early orders cars that had jumped to 3300 and back to 3000 would see movement this week and next week with TPW's of 10/14. Proof will be next week if we go to 3300 and 3400 quickly. He still says that i will get my car in Oct. Ordered early May, went 3000 in early July, jumped in early Sept and back down like the rest of the 3000 club. There may be some "light at the end of the tunnel" for us finally. I'm in the #1 slot on the A list so it's been frustrating watching all the cars being built that were ordered later. Oh well, "patience grasshopper"!!

I am with you guys. Went 3100 yesterday and 3300 today on gm'ers list. I too have the exposed roof and carbon dash and z-51 of course. I don't think I can take it again if t goes back down in status codes.

LOL... I know... Looks like we all went to 3400 and then go back again. I guess I better busy and sell that C5 of mine. Man... I ordered TR and saw a TR C7 at a Corvette show last week and WOW... It's sweet!

I was in the group of people who went from 3300 back to 3000 purgatory.

I think this time is for real, because today I went to 3400 and I got my VIN: 3965. My TPW is 10/14.

My C7 has both CF roof and Z51. (Full list is C2Z, ERI, FAY, FE4, GBA, IWE, LT1, MEL, NE1, NPP, Q7E, RWH, RWJ, UY4, VK3, 195, 3LT)

Well.... I'm still in the 3000 club but at least it gives me hope seeing all you guys move up and I hope I'm not too far behind. I have driven my dads C7 and it is worth the wait.

We 3000'ers may be on the road to recovery. Yesterday many of us went to 3100, and today we went to 3300. Hopefully to 3400 early next week. I still think we'll see TPW w/o 10/14. CF roof and Z51.

Congrats Brothers!!!!!!
I still have not moved, but the fact that you all are going forward gives me hope. About three weeks ago the chat link gave me a TPW of 10/14 then it went away. I doubt I will make it til the week after but at least it looks like we will be built soon.
What a wild ride this preorder thing is, it is my second go around and neither one has been without drama. The wait is not half as bad as knowing not what is going on while all the later cars deliver to their new owners. Maybe GM will offer us the use of the expired coupon.

Unbelievable - VINs to 4000 in the coming week. My car (1818) is in BG, but hopefully will be headed to it's new loving owner this week. Having seen my very first C7 at my dealer's corvette show yesterday, all I can say is it's incredible looking - and the rear end also looks great. My wife (not a car person) was amazed at the crowd size (~500) all waiting to see the unveiling, and the genuine excitement of all present. i can hardly wait. Lots of photos and a review to come when I pick my new baby up.
