Are you saying you have a low # on their list? They get less cars than Ciocca/Kerbeck & MM FYI

If I'm lucky enough to get one, I will probably sell shortly after. For a profit of course. Hopefully it's light years better than what's out now. If not, I'm out

well, given what's happened to the Corvette plant @ Bowling Green I suspect your wait will be a little longer ......

I think that's a given. I feel even people with spots on lists will not get their cars. People will be paying way over MSRP. We will see when they finally start showing up at dealers.

What? I wasn't naming sales people, I named the top vette selling dealers aka the ones that will get the biggest C8Z allocations.

If you're not high up on a list with a dealer that actually gets Z06s, you will be paying a huge markup or waiting for a while

IIRC MM sells more z06's than furman.

I think GM sends out more allocations based on previous z06 sales.

So perhaps dealers will get "x" amount of allocations based on that. But because of with what's going on with the setbacks, even people high up on the list, like me, could still be waiting anway.

If i can have the car exactly 1 year from now i would be happy.

Impossible lol.

Unless someone who literally are getting these cars to flip them, you can probably get one for MSRP + 60k next winter too lol.

I got on the list fall of 2019. I had a hunch the car will be that good

So a G80 a Z06 and soon an EV? I’d love to see your garage. My wife’s pissed off at me that I have two cars.

I don't have that problem lol.

No woman is going to dictate what i want to do in life. It's the reason why i got a vasectomy 2 years ago. No girl is tricking me into a dumb kid i'm stuck paying for for 18-21 years.

But yeah EV is coming in spring to replace my SUV. I just can't decide if i want the model 3 or the model y.

That's awesome dude.

I don't knock anyone with a family. I give all respect to that.

I'm just saying for me, i don't have a care in the world for kids. I have to pretend to be interested when friends show me their newborn or their small child growing up etc. That's just how i am. I do not like kids.

Now give me a dog, cars or bikes, then you got my attention lol

Congrats! You know that lots of us don't want kids, though, right? Neither side is wrong.

I have found that lots of people with kids always want to act like those of us that do not want them are wrong for that. Smh

Z allocations are normally based on total base Vette sales. I'm under 300 on the Ciocca list. Not guaranteed a 2023, but a damn good shot at one

Hmm you might be right considering the 1st MY C8Z.

But usually it's based on previous z06 sales. But since the last z06 these dealers have sold was 19MY z06, i don't think they're going by those numbers anymore lol

They might be going based on 22/23MY stingray sales for the debut MY z06.

Either or, if MM gets even 200 allocations per year, i'm still getting a 1st year anyway so i'm not worried

Definitely not me, I've never ever, EVER been a fan of the Corvette...until now.

I love the C8. The Z06 is completely badass and if I had the money I'd buy one in a heartbeat. I loathe GM as a company, but I have to give them kudos for the C8; they really knocked it out of the park with this one.
