2015 Release Date
Any chance the 2015's will be out before June?
I post for question two reasons: it seems to be a pretty common occurrence with many car companies (Ford's 2012, 2013, 2014 & 2015 Mustang all went on sale in the Spring; Jeep did the same with the Grand Cherokee, and even Acura did so with our 2014 RDX); and for those of us Northerners who use our sports cars mostly from May to November, getting a 2015 in May or June 2014 would be far better than a 2014 model at that time or waiting until September for a 2015.

Historically and I "think" per union contract the factory closes down for 2 weeks in July. Then when they reopen the new model year starts coming out. But with this model the constraints and the later arrival of the vert who knows? If I have the vacation deal correct probably can get a 15 in Late July August for sure.
Just my expectation tho...... the price will rise a couple of Ks and or the more popular options will cost more too.
But maybe some better discounts, who knows?

NOT BEFORE JUNE......if they hold to past practice.
The new model year usually starts production 3rd-4th week of June with "some" early deliveries in early July. But the plant usually closes for summer vacation first two weeks in July so the bulk of new models show up after that.

Perhaps Rick can post where he got that information. I have quoted Rick Conti to two major corvette dealerships and they have not seen that information. According to the two large dealerships I have spoken too no information regarding this has came to their attention.

First of all I don't really care what they raise the price by.....and secondly I must ask....do you work for GM or are you simply passing on information from forum sources other than GM? I am simply asking why Conti is getting information that other major players are not. Seems very odd to me.

No because you are a smart A$$ who knows everything and has all the answers. No matter what I say you will just have some remark that proves your an idiot.
