OK....so after multiple macerations of the numbers I'm a bit confused....nothing new there....I'll attempt to explain my confusion....
Does the current build and price tool on chevy.com include the $1,000 price increase which some of us were protected?
I know it doesn't include the additional $1,200 so I've factored that into my configurations, plus the higher destination charge and the $5 increase on the splash guards.
When I look at the new partial pricing in the above link it shows the base 3LT at $72,850 + $1,295 destination = $74,145. Is that inclusive of both price increases? The $1,000 and $1,200?
I'm trying to figure out if the base 3LT price increased or if it's simply the 2 previous price increases.
Yes it does. That is the final pricing for the 2021's.

OK....I simplified it. I scrapped all my 2021 configurations, since I'm getting a 2022, and started with the base 2022 MSRP + Destination charge in the announcement and then added back in my options. Problem solved, except I still can't calculate what a 2LT configuration will be since we still don't know if the base price of the 2LT has increased....but I'm 99% sure I'm going with a 3LT anyway.....after hundreds of iterations.....lol

Well, If the 3LT didn't go up in price beyond the previously announced base price increases, I don't think it would be unreasonable to think the 2LT followed suit. The 3LT has the same equipment as the 2LT, plus the more expensive interior bits, and I can't imagine that the interior prices have declined since last year. (but, it is C8 bizarro world, so anything is possible!) So, my bet is you're pretty darned close with what you did.
The wonderful thing about choices, is they give you so many choices...
For comparison, my car, a "price protected" 2021 HTC 2LT Z51 with a few options, would be $2550 more expensive if configured the same as a 2022. The only thing I can't discern is if the GT2 seats remained the same price. This works out to right at a 3% increase overall which seems to be quite fair on GM's part considering how the raw materials are up considerably (like 75-100%) over a year ago. It feels about like the price increases that we faced with the 2021's compared to the 2020's...I didn't like them, but it didn't stop me from continuing my quest for a C8.
Hey do I have this right? According to this, the 2022 2LT HTC is just $1,000.00 more than the 2021...
Well, if you add in the extra $200 for destination charge, it's still the $1200 that was announced earlier. But it looks like the base price only was increased by $1000, yes.

so I’m confused. Are all the 2022 models $1200 more expensive with an additional $200 destination charge? Or is the $200 part of that $1200
First, a big thanks to MacMulkin for everything they do to keep us up to date!
Clearly “partial” pricing doesn’t tell us the full extent of how much more we are going to have to shell out on top of the increases GM already announced and the destination charge increase. Although from the latest pricing update looks like the 2LT package has not increased in price. Question, does the $1250 price for the High Wing Spoiler include dealer installation?
