How long after Mackmulkin gets my deposit check will I see order activity? I'm sure they would be willing to answer but I don't want to bug them. They got my check on 4/3. I am anxious as heck!

Patience Grasshopper, patience.
No idea really, but you are dealing with some great professional people there. Congrats on the order.

Impressive for a first car. If you've never had a Vette, be sure and leave all of the electronic Nannies on.......this car has lots of power. That combined with low weight will make a vastly different driving experience than your trucks.
But you will love it...it's a blast.

I think it depends on what you order. Mac got my deposit check 2/28 and entered the order, status 1100. I was in line for a Z51 allocation, Tommy had me double check order, matched allocation 3/18, was at status 3000 on 3/19. Now at 3300 with TPW 4/14. Courtesy delivery is to an area that gets delivery by truck so I hope to have the car by 5/1.

Call them to ask--it's your money and your car.

They are great to work with so get your answer directly from them.

It will pop to 2000 then 3000 fast--trust me.

Tommy got my check on 3/3 and order hit 2000 two days later. Car was built on 4/1 and as of a couple of days ago was bayed to be trained to NH. It moves fast and process has been smooth so far working with them.

FWIW I ordered a Z51 3LT Convertible.

Good luck. Yours will be here before you know it.
