Default Order timing/delivery

If I was to place an order tomorrow, would you be able to tell me when possible delivery would be. My goal would be to take delivery in March, early or mid.
I'm in NJ, ordering coupe, Z51, 3LT, 8A.
Thoughts. Thanks in advance.

It depends on constraints and if the dealer that you ordered from has an allocation or not. Given no constraints and the dealer has allocation, you can expect it to take about 4-6 weeks for your car to get produced. It then will take a few days to 2-4 weeks for delivery depending on where you are having it delivered to (the West Coast is the 2-4 week range).

Hope this helps.

If your in N.J. I would look at Kebecks inventory. He might have what you're looking for and you could just drive it home.

If they are still going by rail, and I am pretty sure they are - you are looking at 15-25 days after production for delivery and 5-6 weeks from 2000 status to release from BG assembly.
If you ordered by January 10th, you should have your car by the third week of March, maybe a week earlier.

I know Central Pennsylvania ships by truck. My car arrived at the dealer one week after assembly. I do see Corvettes on car carriers traveling east on I 78 between Harrisburg and Allentown, points east?? When I placed an order for my C6, the order date was mid January and I took delivery second week of March 2006. My C7 order took 6 1/2 months, allocation problem.

Ordered 10/23 from top 10 dealer. Z51 with no constraints just picked up this week for 3000. Guessing production date will be end of Jan.

There have been weird allocations for large dealers on Z51 due to their large Z06 builds.

Once at 3000 you're almost home!

From what I've experienced with my Z51 order, this is pretty typical. Even if you order from a dealer who is getting allocations, there's no way to tell when he'll get one for a Z51. as the guy above said, there have been weird allocations for dealers on the Z51 option due to their large Z06 build.

I placed an order for a 1LT Z51 manual with competition seats and yellow brake calipers from Plant City on 12/4. Your order progress gives me an idea of how long I may wait before mine gets picked up.

Did your sales rep call you to let you know or did you find out by tracking it on your own?

Thanks

Well let's hope for a warm February early March. 15 mile trek will be a slow one . I will have to begin mods earlier than planned.

That is pretty quick from 1000 to 2000. Who is your dealer, if you don't mind me asking, as I am from central NJ and would rather not take the 2+ hr trip to Kerbecks if I can get it closer.
