Default 427 Convertible

I ordered my 427 Convertible the first of May. I checked my order status today it has changed from Order Placed to Vehicle Queued for Productions, now what does that really mean? Last time I checked I thought all the 427 Convertibles with the Z30 anniversary strip package were on constraint. This is my first time ordering a new Corvette, I was just wondering what that really meant.

It means you are going to wait a while...until Z30 comes off constraint and they fix the stripe issue on the top.

I am seriously considering pulling the trigger also.

Just received an email from my dealership, my car is scheduled to be built on June 25th. Awesome!!! I assume that it means they have released the constraint on a few cars.

Been a while since I factory ordered a GM, but used to order quite a few. Used to be until the order was "preferenced" for production, you could change it, after that you were SOL
