Default Information Wanted!!!!

Congrats on your new baby! Now I'm hoping somebody out there in Corvette Forum land can help me out. I plan on ordering a new C7 in two weeks. I want to order a C7 1LT with an automatic trans. Are dealers discounting on orders now or are they still charging sticker? If anybody out here has this information I would really appreciate it if you would let me know what to expect when I try ordering the car. I live in the Chicago area.

I'm in south texas area and oh yeah, they are still charging sticker. I was going to go with the 1lt also, just make sure that the 1lt has all that you want.

how much is the wait in Chicago?

I was referring to the wait for arrival. Actually I waited quite a while, for a number of reasons, to place the order to. But I sent my deposit, along with the order specs and now just waiting for confirmation that the order has been connected with an allocation. I really don't mind waiting a couple months for arrival, it's winter here anyway. The best thing would be for my C7 to arrive with the robins!!

I ordered mine with spoiler and logo mats, both of which are dealer installed, why...? I have no idea. So I get the car but dealer doesn't have the spoiler or mats yet... I would verify with your dealer if this applies as it was a disappointment for me to see car for the first time and it's not totally complete. Don't get me wrong, i was still blown away! lol
