Its not as funny as it sounds. In the past GM has done some significant updates on second year Corvette platforms. The 2014s will be the worst model year of C7s entire life cycle for reliability and overall quality and thats just a fact of life when buying a car on a new platform.

yep, I am waiting for the 2015 also. I was 'this close' to pulling a trigger on a 2014 but that first year model thing spooked me a little bit too much. I am hoping they paint the rear bumper cover one color in 2015 and maybe have a comp grey wheel option.
Really excited.

Not normally but they may add colors and one blue almost always changes hues. Unless the green is a terrible seller and I can't see that happening, im sure it will at least make the second year after all they have an awful lot of brown tone interiors that I think were put on the list just for that green and dark blue.

I thought about waiting of a 15, but like others have said maybe the 15 does not have any improvements and you have to wait for a 16 to get something better. In the end I ordered a 14, and due to a little luck and Rick Conti getting more cars then he tought, I should have my car in September. I will get to enjoy it for an entire year before I could have gotten a 2015. And if things go well I may trade my 14 in for a HIPO model in 2016 anyway.
