Default Finally Built!!!!

SOOOO, I traded in my C-6 and ordered my C-7 back in October. I have been caught up in the hole Z51 constraintgate!!!! My dealer has had plenty of allocation but with different options GM would not except the order. So here is my time line. Ordered in October, GM excepted the order early December, Built last week, Monday went 4B00.
My dealer says we should have the car in the next week!!!!
I know there is many different stories like mine and in some cases worse. Moral to the story is hang in there and you will get your car. If you can get your car buy it and don't listen to the BS post about below invoice selling of Z51's!!!!! Anything less than sticker is a great deal for an amazing car.
