No Joe is not the only one. Mine has been at Coughlin Chevy waiting for a transport truck to bring it out to me in Colorado. Just got a call they are picking it up this afternoon and I'll have it Sunday Morning,

Yea I think it's a harder wait once you know it's built rather than waiting for it to be built.

That is so true. I had 4 months of pre-build and 3 weeks of post-build waiting. The 3 weeks was excruciating!

Mine was in New Boston , Michigan for 26 days and then was in Selkirk N.Y for 9 days.
I took delivery on April 30 . It was completed March 19. Rail shipping sucks!

My Corvette was built the week of 3/17. The following Monday [3/24] it was sitting at their dealership.

All of the "horror stories" others have suffered should not apply to you if your car is being sent directly to Les Stanford in Dearborn. They receive so many cars that usually a semi is loaded with Corvettes exclusively for their dealership and drives directly there.

You will not have to worry about slow train rides or waiting in rail yards...........Good Luck.

My car made it to Moran Chevrolet in just under a week from being produced.
