Central TX near Ft Hood. The hill country is a great scenic drive.

That's 4 for Texas already. Such a small sample size you'd think theyd have plenty coming this way. Enough to get complete truck loads often.

Add one more. Also in Austin but getting courtesy delivery from MM to San Antonio. Need to check with the concierge to see if I've cleared QC. Car built 3/30.

Mine was built 3/28 and was cleared by 3/30 around noon for sure. So I'm sure yours is cleared unless they found an area of concern.

There's soon to be alot of C8s riding around Texas, I recently started seeing more. Maybe 3-4 a week depending how often Im out and about. Used to go weeks without seeing one

Well I just called the concierge and.... status 4200, order shipped! So it looks like our cars are on the way. Also got my first fleeting glimpse of Amplify Orange today. Good day overall.

Now to get serious about cleaning the garage....

To all you Texas guys on here with built cars, I just tracked my car and actually watched it drive off the lot on a transport on to Hwy 65 and is heading south to Texas. That means it's full of Texas corvettes. Hopefully, yall are on there. I should see the car on Sunday or Monday.
And no, this is NOT an April fools joke.

I cleaned mine out also. Lol somewhat. Still need to get the stuff I staged for the attic up in the attic though. And wait for heavy trash day to throw some big items out.

Did you use OnStar? If so, what’s all needed to activate OnStar? Anything from the dealer?

How do I activate OnStar? I'm assuming I need the Dealer to do this. I also already have my Vin.

Nvm as soon as I replied I got a text and email to download app. Good news is I can now track my car. Bad news is it’s still inside the BG gates. But now I have a perimeter set around BG, as soon as it moves I’ll get notification and know it’s on the way!
