The would be a decision for Kerbeck to make - he won't get "extra cars" for his showroom...That's a violation of GM dealer agreements with dealers...he may decide to not fill a few orders but nothing else...there is a very specific formula used, based on past sales as to how many each dealer gets

didn't a big forum dealer on here state a few weeks back he didn't place any sold order cars in the first consensus. He said he knew of the issues of order codes bouncing all over the place so he waited to the second and third consensus. I would be willing to bet the first consensus orders are for the lot at that dealership.

Good photo, thanks for posting! There's a lot of good news in there. Great to see that a lot of new Stingrays will be finding good homes.

That overhead shot of the storage lot looks like "C7 DNA".

They use to transport the Vettes to the west coast via railway train. Not sure if they still do ... I would suspect they do.

Maybe they are 'blow up C7s' ... like the US did in WWII with blow up tanks, etc to fool the enemy. GM is actually still inside the factory trying to get the assembly line bugs worked out.

That thought occurred to me when I drove over to Bondurant today to see if any transport trucks were evident (none were). Would Corvettes to Phoenix go by rail?
