If you are, why not share the information with the forum and it's members.. if the hyperbole is upsetting, spill the beans and clear the air!

TIA
Maybe he doesn't want to burn his source. Even if Tadge himself told him the Z06 first build date was May 1st that could change the next day and people on this forum would call him a liar. I will bet GM only has a rough date in mind and won't announce an official date until all their ducks are lined up.

Hey, I get it. I would only really take my SA's updates as verbatim on c8Z launch and allocation.(Canadian so not same-same).... But when you put yourself out there, people will ask questions. It's human nature.

There are people on this board (JVP being one of them) that have connections to the Corvette team. They will, at times, BLOW UP some of the more outlandish claims that are MADE UP by other board members/media/etc. What they WON'T do is leak proprietary information to a bunch of nameless/faceless people on an enthusiast website.

PS. Since you're new here, a handy tip:
When someone starts a thread/post with "I HEARD", you can be assured that 99 out of 100 times, it is BS.

1101 Sep 29 order submitted
1100 Sep 29 order added
2000 Oct 2 accepted by GM

If I am price protected will sticker show the new or old price? How is everyone getting the credit between old and new price? Is Ciocca just asking you to submit payment based on the old price?
no matter window sticker shows current price.

The invoice to dealer is the tell.
They are not obligated to pass on the savings to you. Between you and them.

I read on another site that you are price protected if your order was submitted by Oct 1. The window sticker will likely show the new price with the increase but your dealer should be able to invoice at the lower price. I was not so lucky, I also was called on Sep 29 and submitted my initial order on Sep 30, but then I decided to negotiate a lower ADM and didn’t get the final order submitted until 10/2. It was worth it for me because I save a bunch in the net result.
