Default Finally ordered!

Victory Red, 1SX, Z51

Got a pretty good deal on the car with the supplier discount, so I ordered Thursday. $40981.56 + TTL (43,810.04 out the door) minus any incentives that might be available upon delivery. My previous two cars were and an 03Cobra and a 03Evo, so I'm hoping this car will be a combination of the two in terms of performance. I'm getting older, so I decided to ditch the racer boy look/Evo.

Congrats to you! 2 questions, if you don't lind:

1. What dealer did you find that would actually do GMS? I tried in CA but completely struck out.

2. Are you sure that 1SX cars are actually being built? I'm not sure where, but I thought I read that they were no longer available. For your sake, I hope I'm misinformed.

Good luck!

Please let us know. I read that 1SX's were only on constraint.

Classic Chevrolet here in Dalls/Ft Worth honored the Supplier

As far as the SX production stoppage, the sales guy didn't say anything about it when he took my order Thursday or hasn't called me back to say they he was having any problems, so they better be building it!

I will keep you posted.....

Congrats!! Nice color choice, picking up a VR in May myself! One question though, any idea how long you have to wait since both the 1sx and Z51 are/were on constraint?

They started buiding 1sx several weeks ago. The canceled the non-black tops but recently only z51 and convertables have had contraints.
