I realize that we are but a small minority of the overall Corvette world. I am surprised at how few have actual orders in. Is this the result of G M's allocation system or as I suspect, because the changes are so radical, many are sitting out the first and possibly second year of production so as not to be a beta tester ?

I think there are quite a few of us with deposits down that have not had our orders placed yet based on GM's allocation process.

There is no useful info to get from this thread other than info on who here has placed an order and decided to respond to this thread. Reading ANYTHING else into it is simply a waste of time.

You also need to remember that just because a car is released doesn't mean everyone who will eventually become an owner simply drops everything, sells their current car and upgrades immediately. People will trade in and upgrade in the normal course for them based on when they bought their current car, when it becomes less fun to drive, when personal finances allow, etc.

Well, instead of speculation and as a comparison, you could go back to the C6F forum and count how many guys had orders in 4 months before delivery time with the 2005.

My wife says I can order one when my '05 gets to 8,000 miles (now at 5,684).

Why are you typing on a friggen computer? Get out and drive that Vette!!!

I was going to wait a few days to look at the total of orders but so far as Mikey said it's a lot smaller than I would have expected to see.

As for useless threads, well let's not go there!! LOL

I had the title on my 08 Coupe I just sold!

I don't need the dealer to do any financing for me on my C7!

Not everyone is in that position, so when the C7's hit the showrooms
they will be some that will use the dealer to trade & upgrade!

It is a useless thread. If you wanted to make it somewhat useful and were really interested in anything other than pissing on C7 buyers' legs, you'd go back and do your research on where C6 orders were at this point in 2004. Then at least you'd have something interesting to base your pissing on.

Really? Absurd beyond words

Big Dan 427

OX why would I do research from nine years ago? The economy was booming and it was a different world in every way when it came to spending.

How about your thread of is it an engine or a motor! Really must have taken some deep though to come up with that useful tidbit!

What I really need to research is what kind of meds would work for you, something that takes the sarcastic antagonistic being out of yourself!!

MikeyTX

I just figured that there would be more responding to Big Dan's original question stating that they'd placed a deposit.

MikeyTX

That's no lie ! Geese, my 2012 has just shy of 3k on it and I bought it the beginning of April this year.

BlueOx

Then what do you base "a lot smaller than I would have expected to see"? This has to do with this thread.

Big Dan 427

The better statement would be why are you even in this thread, it was designed for those who have orders in and you aren't one of them! I thought my initial post was pretty clear, but you had to come in and "****" on another thread for some unknown reason!

MikeyTX

How is it absurd ?

DREAMERAK

do you really want to go there?

In the topic/poll about what people are paying, relative to MSRP, for their C7, I think that fewer than 150 people responded to the poll, and 1/3 of those are paying less than MSRP.

Not exactly the news that the fan boys want us to believe.

I only wish people would quit quoting Big Blowhards so I don't have to, even accidentally, read a word of their nonsense.

Big Dan 427

Sure Dreamer but lets do it in OT! Don't wreck it like your buddy.
