Default What happened to the Atlantic and Pacific editions of the C7?

I haven't seen them or heard anything since they were supposed to delayed. Who knows what happened to them.

GM probably thought that an Atlantic and Pacific edition would be a good edition to the line up to enhance sales. I guess sales of the 2015 didn't need enhancing.

2015 3Lt. Z51 T.R. A.R. Int. Mag ride 7 speed carbon flash stripes. Vin 8929.

I wonder how many units will end up being sold for the 2015. I'm sure the Z06 numbers will be seperate.

Crazy expensive for a $100 front spoiled (thanks jake), competition seats, and a bunch of striping.

If that is the Pacific Package you bought, they changed a lot since introduced at Carlisle...

Here is the Pacific...


And here is the Atlantic, guess this is the one you got...


Taken at 2014 Carlisle...

Pacific Editions, white and red...they did not include the side skirts/splitter
We've ordered and are putting them on once they come in.

I thought they were supposed to have side skirts? One of the things I've been waiting for is side skirts made of plastic like the Z06 splitter

Ok, this thread really helps. I've had a couple of customers trying to find the side skirts, perhaps the OP, and I couldn't find them anywhere and I finally concluded GM didn't release them.

Did you order them from GM and if so, do you have the part #s by chance?

Pacific was Coupe only, Atlantic was Convertible only.

They built some, but I think it took a while. They are 2015 only. 2016 has 3 NEW design packages.

I think all of this is for collectability nonsense.

I'm not a fan of the design packages.

My C7 will be what it is when I buy it (pretty much a loaded up 3LT Z51).

My C6, is rare. I've got a 4LT, F55, Manual it's like 5% of production for all C6 years. It adds 0 value for being that rare. Yay!

SO HOW many does that add up to? 100? By the feedback on the A & P treads it looks like they will only add up to 20 or 30!!
