Chevrolet dealers who signed the 2014 Corvette Stingray Letter of Acknowledgement and sold seven or more Corvette vehicles at retail in the 2012 calendar year sales period are eligible to receive the Premiere Edition. Eligible dealers will receive further information closer to start of production and will have the option of not accepting this unit through their Chevrolet field team.

Will the Premiere Edition count towards a dealer’s 2014 Corvette Stingray Estimated Guide Number?
No. The units are in addition to the guide number previously provided to the dealers.

Are there any sales restrictions on the 2014 Corvette Stingray Premiere Edition?
Chevrolet suggests the dealer retain this unit for display purposes; however, it is the dealer’s discretion on when to sell the unit. Chevrolet will not be paying any demo allowance on this edition.

I cannot find the 2014 Corvette Stingray Premiere Edition in the ordering information. How does the dealer submit an order?
The Premiere Edition is not ordered by the dealer; thus ordering information will not appear in the Dealer Order Guide or any of the configurators. The units are assigned to the dealers who meet the requirements outlined above on a random basis. As such, the Premiere Edition is not eligible for sold orders or National Corvette Museum delivery.

As a dealer, here's my take on the Premier Edition:

It will give us an opportunity to have "an event" at the dealership to reveal the new Stingray.

It will give us an opportunity to showcase the new Stingray in a new exterior color and a new interior color.

It will give us an opportunity to showcase new Stingray accessories in a much more effective way than showing pictures of accessories in the Corvette Stingray brochure.

Will we be asking a "premium price" for this Premier Edition? NO

Will this Premier Edition be a collectable? In my opinion, no. But it will hold it's value better that any other Chevrolet that we sell.

Have a great day and a Happy and Safe 4th of July!
