Anyone have the latest info on the M7 restraint? It's been in effect for a couple weeks now.

Why is the M7 constraint such a big secret? Please someone tell us what is going on!

Any updates on the M7 constraint? It's been 4 weeks now since the June 9th report

Is there a current thread with the constraints for the 2016 C7 production?

if you check Kerbeck's inventory, it looks like they have 8 manual Grand Sports coming in as of today...

Thanks, I actually ordered a manual Z51 Coupe back in May... Still waiting for my order to get picked up .. I guess that particular model is still under constraint (from what i hear)..

The M7 constraint is still in effect for the Z51 and GS Coupes. Once they have the change that they are working on completed, they will begin production.

Still on constraint.

They have 8 order numbers...that's all they have until the constraint is lifted.

Correct. Based on what I know, I hope production will start by mid August.

Good news is coming out today about GS M7 production startup! Watch for it!

Now that shipping of 2017 Corvettes has commenced, the following information regarding Z51 Stingray and Grand Sport transmission and cooling upgrades has been authorized for public release:

- 2017 manual transmission equipped vehicles are equipped with the front auxiliary engine coolant radiator.

- 2017 8-speed automatic equipped vehicles are equipped with the additional front auxiliary transmission cooler.

- There are no engine cooling changes for the 8-speed vehicles.


I started a new thread for discussion of these changes here: 2017 Transmission Upgrade Announcement and Discussion Thread


Also, Mike Furman at Criswell Chevrolet, has confirmed that 61 M7 orders nation-wide will be accepted this consensus! TPW for those 61 orders will be August 22. Thank you, Mike!

how about Black Rose,is it considered in constraints,?

mikede824

YES

Nukmeister1

Yes hopefully will start producing in a couple of weeks.

Black Rose Metallic is not under constraint; any Corvette that is orderable can be ordered in Black Rose.

mikede824

That's not what the man asked, Black Rose is not being produced now, so it is under constraint. The factory will not accept an order for Black Rose until they release the constraint

mpuzach

Interesting. There's no mention of this on GM's National Constraints Report. I stand corrected.

Another online forum posted new constraints from Mike Furman at Criswell for Aug 4th showing Black Rose at 5% and listing "Interim Introduction/New Option Acceleration."

I have an order in for a Yellow 2LT Stingray and I selected the Z51 style body color spoiler but my I Just got an update from my dealer after he told me I could not get it: "It's not on constraint they just simply aren't accepting orders with that spoiler right now. I don't know if it is an option that they are going to delete and haven't reflected that on the consumer site yet or if it is just simply not available with that color. The order website doesn't indicate -- it lets you physically click the spoiler option but then it sits in the bank with a specification error saying the spoiler is not available."


Anyone know what that means? I cannot believe I cannot get the spoiler!

Bob Z.,


Please don't post the same question in multiple threads. You have started a thread with the question, just stick with that one.
