Default Is everyone paying MSRP for 2015 orders?

I'm ready to order and just wondering if anyone is getting dealers to come off MSRP. I'm outside St Louis and it doesn't look like the Credit Union discount applies in my area and haven't seen much discounting on 2015's.

Search for supplier pricing. There are forum dealers who accept it and can have your car "courtesy delivered" to a local Chevy dealership near you. The ~$6k off MSRP you get is definitely worth it.

Also be sure you search for and understand the allocation process as another reason to go with a forum dealer versus your local dealer.

Same for me on all accounts. I would also recommend contacting Les Stanford. Dennis is currently away on vacation. No reason to pay retail for this car.

About $6k off any 2015 model is what you should be getting. Anymore you're paying too much (vs many).

If we were to order a 2015 this week, how long would delivery take?

From what I've heard it depends on how quick your order actually goes in which depends on the number of allocations the dealer has and how many people ahead of you on the order list. Mine has a ton of allocations and says I should see a car in Oct/Nov time frame but the order has not actually gone in yet.

My car will be courtesy delivered to the Southwest so he said figure 3 weeks transportation.

I live in the Northeast and am trying to find the best deal I can on a 15. From what I understand, Kerbeck in NJ gets the largest allocation in my area but I want to get supplier pricing or employer pricing and I also have a trade. Who do you guys recommend? Thank you.

I went with my local dealer who does relatively low Corvette volume (compared to the big guys), got supplier pricing, and got top dollar for my trade. I was a little concerned about how long it would take to get my car but my '15 with Z51 and painted roof (both of which are on constraint) is already built and waiting to be shipped. My point is that it might be a good idea to start by seeing what your local dealer can do. If you can justify going with them, you eliminate the logistical challenges associated with your trade and with a courtesy delivery.

I'm not paying MSRP but I'm having to go out of state. Check with some of the big forum sponsor dealers.

You mentioned options being on constraint. I am looking for a torch red c7 with no options. Manual trans 1LT bone stock. Would something like that be more difficult to order due to the lower price?

Don't know if there is any truth to it, but I heard Hendrick does pretty good on negotiating off MSRP.

I'm working with Mike Furman at Criswell in MD. He has agreed to my Military Discount which is the same as Supplier discount. He said he has 600 allocations. Criswell is a Forum dealer.

Dave Smith in Idaho will sell for $3k off MSRP but don't know how many allocations they have.

I am buying from a medium sized Southeast dealer. It’s their first 2015 Vette sale. I ordered it and I am only getting 1K off sticker due to C2Q (clear & painted roofs) being on constraint plus front & rear splash guards have no code. Dealer is selling, over the parts counter, the clear roof and guards (installed) at cost. I also have a 88,000 mile C6 trade in.

Well. This thread just saved me 6k. I had been beating my head against the wall thinking that paying msrp for a second model year car was a little crazy. Also thought the small discounting on 14's was crazy. Most of the ones I was considering were 2k-3k off. They took a 3k price increase so I would be paying the same as some one this time last year.
Went to local dealer who said that you can't get supplier pricing on vettes. When told that corvette forum says otherwise I got a call back saying they could do it had alocation for Z51 order.

Thanks Everyone
