Default Only 34 days from placing C7 order till delivered

It appears that BG has already produced all the ordered cars that are not under constraint. They need to start producing the convert preorders if all the coupe orders are already built.

Should start seeing for sale C7's sitting in dealer showrooms and their lots all over the country soon.

This buyer that posted today ordered his C7 from the dealer on 9/6 and picked it up using the courtesy delivery on 10/10, only 34 days from order to delivery.

You are soo wrong. Allotments and allocations do not = "C7's sitting in showrooms all over the country". Wish it was true, but it aint gonna happen for awhile.

Ugh I hate when dealers have no allocations but try to keep you by assuring you that they will get one soon. I contacted a local dealer and they told me that if I ordered anytime around now I would get my car in 8 months I said no way! and found a dealer 150 miles away with one allocation left and sealed the deal. My order was accepted by Chevrolet within 3 days! Amazing!

If you look at the C7 Dealer Forum area there are a number of dealers listing in stock C7's for sale. I'm sure there are many dealers that do not advertise on the forum that also have cars in stock for sale:

Why not?
It would seem if you can walk in today and be driving one in 30 days as the previous posters are saying,it won't be long at all before there is stock to pick from on the lots.

there are several dealers around my area that have at lease one car in stock (not pre-sold) in my area. They aren't optioned how I'd like otherwise I'd pick one up. Still waiting on the Z51 constraint to pass. I figure if I'm paying MSRP the car will be exactly the way I want it optioned so I don't mind waiting on an order.

Default This guy got 4% discount off of MSRP from a small dealer

This guy ordered his from a small corvette dealer that only sells 10 a year but already has taken delivery and got a 4% discount off of MSRP amounting to about $2.500 discount.
