I received an email from Chevrolet saying my order was accepted on 10/1, my dealer told me my car was to be built the week of 10/17. That is delayed due the plant shut down, where does that place me? What is 3000, 3300 etc and where do you get those numbers?

The High Wing, all weather mats and Q9I wheels are on constraint. As for Z51, Non Z51, with or without Mag Ride here is how that works. When GM gives the dealer their allocations they will tell each dealer what that dealership can order. I got 4 allocations last Thursday 3 cars had to be Z51 and one could be non Z51 and I could order mag ride on all of them if I wanted to

CLEAR

My order was accepted the same time as yours but no TPW yet. Curious if yours actually got a build week that quick or if dealers just told you that.

Just went to 3000 today....

I didn't think you could get a build date until the "3300" email from Chevrolet.

CLEAR

Whats typical time frame from 3000 to 3300?

jimbobatx

I am currently at 7 weeks and still waiting for my "3300" status .... My order: C8 HTC with Z51, Mag Ride, Front Lift, Q9I Wheels (as far as big ticket items)..... Q9I might be the holdup from what i have gathered here on the forum.

CLEAR

I did not select any options that were constrained so hopefully mine goes quicker.

NONE of those options were constrained 5 weeks ago when my order went in….let alone 7 weeks ago. My order went in 9/16 and the Q9I wheels went on constraint 9/22…..though I’m sure it’s what’s holding us at 3000 status at the moment.

Neither did I, and have been at 3000 since 9/23.

I went to 3300 a few days ago. I just checked. I know all of us in the 3000+ club are impatient but I guess 3000 is better than 1300 on the wait list.

R23HTC

for reference, when did you hit 3000?

DaveDMW

Sept 16: 2000
Sept 20: 3000
Oct 11: 3300

Mine is a non-z-51 coupe and it is silver. I’m hearing that z-51s are getting priority at the moment so that might put me back. I also wonder if the color makes a difference since silver is one of the least popular colors and it’s maybe easier to paint a bunch of popular colors in a row. Not much I can do about it but wait, I guess.

R23HTC

congrats! And that’s quick. Last I checked I’m still at 3000 with a TTPW of 11/28. Grant it I ordered a HTC, with FE2, and the Q9I wheels. Basically everything that went on constraint just a few days later. I’m just hoping I might have the car by Christmas. With the plant closing this week, it’s looking less likely.

Not to hijack the thread, but out of curiosity, what limits the HTCs to only two in a row in production?

C21ban

Same options for me and TPW of 11/21. I’m sure that will get delayed until the following week as it is T for “Tentative”

DaveDMW

Purely just a guess but since they have more parts and probably take longer to install, the 2-in-a-row constraint is probably related to physically getting parts to the install point and then stacking all the parts for assembly and then assembly while keeping the line going. I seem to remember that there are almost as many convertibles built as coupes (maybe not exactly but somewhat close) so it might be something like 2 convertibles, 2-3 coupes, etc.

R23HTC

(edit- stand corrected as posted below, it is NO MORE THAN 2 IN A ROW) It is because the back deck is more complex. Last I saw it was approximately 51% coupe 49% HTC.

my HTC was built last week and delivered this weekend. I picked it up Monday

It's because it takes longer to build an HTC so it slows the line down. Here is the list of build restrictions
