WOW!

I wasn't expecting any chance to get the vette this month, but the dealer just called and said, "the TPW is the 12th and there was a possibility that I'd get it by the end of the month."

I ordered it on Nov 21.

Can't wait to see the black beauty arrive.

It's an a6 with 3LT package and base suspension.

Oh yeah and titanium interior.

Man..... am I jacked up!

Where at in Oklahoma? I'm in OKC.

I ordered mine from Frontier in El Reno on 10/10. Order accepted 10/11. Built on 11/16 and delivered to Frontier on 12/1.

Been driving it for a couple of days now and it just keeps getting better.

I live southwest of Duncan.

I used Knippelmier.

Just got off the phone with Dan, ordering the cargo partition and earlier ordered the chrome wheels from West Coast Corvettes.

Got plenty of rejex coming too.

WOW is right Pressie. You may set a record for the fastest time from order to build.

I ordered mine on the 21st too, but my dealer couldn't place the order that week due to Thanksgiving (I understood orders were placed on Thursdays) so my order went in the following Thursday - Dec 1st.

I haven't gotten a TPW yet, but I figured it would be at least the first week in Jan due to the holiday break at the plant. Maybe I'll get lucky too..

This waiting is very distracting from work. I can't concentrate...
