sent my deposit on april 7, supposed to be #12 on the list

romaja

My number on the deposit receipt was 31. These numbers are not updated so it is possible two people could have the same number. When I inquired a week ago, I had moved down in the mid 20's as their are always a few that withdrawal their deposits for various reasons.

Not sure where I will end up as their could be some 2014 roll over's if those orders are not filled. How are these customers integrated with the 2015 list?

I was told that they will cross that bridge when they come to it as they might not have to address this question at all if 2014 orders do in fact get filled.

Time will tell

Last time I checked there were no more 2014s available except 2 coupes and a z51 convertible. I'm pretty sure those orders were filled up since I got this info about a week ago.

Excellent! thanks for the info! When I put a deposit down for a 2015 in late April, Dennis told me the car would be delivered to LS on the second drop around labor day. Usually takes 7 days or less after the car is produced to arrive at the dealership. 8 hours by truck.

Lots of variables and moving parts to this equation.

Getting excited!

I'll join in.... Received my deposit receipt back on March 20. No number on the receipt, but was told by Dennis that I'm number 9, with one order ahead of me cancelling, so I guess I've got number 8.

With all the buzz about ordering info getting released, I'm hoping to be able to start putting a build sheet together and get my 1st "Vette" on order.

I plan on doing Museum Delivery to remove one variable. I too am getting excited.

Just curious if they are offering a discount? Not willing to pay sticker.

When I last talked to Erik he had mentioned that they were offering the supplier discount (but that was over a month ago). Others on this forum/thread had indicated that Dennis was saying the same and that history had shown that once GM offers a discount, like employee or Supplier, that they do not tend to discontinue until the next generation vehicle (at least that is what I am also hoping as the '14 I put together on the supplier discount site was a little over $6K cheaper).

I did tell Dennis that if an opportunity for a 2014 Z51 came available that I would be interested. I am hoping GM throws extra 2014 allocation at them.

So here is the list I have so far for a 2015:

Received an email from my salesman yesterday, I'm #45!

AustinVettes

I'd like nothing more than to place my deposit with them today, but I can't seem to get them to reply to my emails. Same seems to be true of a few other forum dealers.

Crazy how difficult it is to get someone to take $75k of your money.

DWG

Are you using Dennis_Tap@lesstanford.com?

AustinVettes

I got an automated reply from Dennis Tap a few days ago, but nothing from an actual person.

I get it. The car is selling like crazy right now, and dealers are going to be able to sell all the cars they can get by just waiting for drive up traffic. I bought a new C5 Z06 and a new C6 convertible so I know that the process isn't as easy as buying a Camry. But it would be nice to get some kind of reply.

I don't want to single out this dealer though, because I've encountered the issue with a few now. I'm sure things will be different in a year or two when production catches up with demand.

I've had the same experience as well.

I called several dealers expressing that I wanted to put a deposit down, and they all say "we'll call you back by the end of the day to confirm" and then nothing .

AustinVettes

I'm as big of a Corvette guy as you'll find. Loved my Z06, been driving my C6 and waiting patiently for a C7. But much more of this, and I'll be paying a visit to the Porsche dealer to see if things are the same in 911 country. For that matter, I heard you could get amazing deals on Vipers these days.

Admittedly, these are first world problems. Hard to complain when your biggest problem is not being able to find a dealer who will take your Corvette money.

I have been dealing with Erik Hibbard and he responds pretty quickly to e-mails (for me, e-mails are pretty convenient as I am on the phone a lot for work).

I felt the exact same way. It's very frustrating to get no response when you trying to make a major purchase. Hang in there though. It took several days for them to get back to me but once they did, they were attentive.

LBinATL

Well that was easy, 2 rings and I was putting a deposit down in no time .

Rob Willis

I think I'm #13, but I'm considering dropping out depending on '15 pricing.
