Nope, I'm in the same boat you are. Vin #179. Still sitting in the BG parking lot, waiting for transport to Texas. I think there are a couple other guys who are still waiting. Boiler_81 is one I can think of.

Correct, I am still waiting. I suspect there are still a number of cars which have not yet been reworked. I would suspect they are motivated to get them reworked ASAP. I assume it is a supply issue, keeping the line running with the correct parts is first priority. However, every plant I have ever worked with wants to clear out the lot as soon as they can. They do not like cars aging in the lot. There is always the potential for damage as they sit.

I just got an update from Chevrolet customer assistance in reference to my 2016 Corvette. They're still saying that my car is available for transport and waiting for a truck. That's pretty funny because it was delivered to my dealer last Friday and I picked it up this Tuesday. And you guys think they're only a day behind?
It is a minimum of a day behind not just a day behind.

Looks like Shane is right about the invoice being delayed because of EYT. LMK when you get your invoice as that will unblock me. I just bought my ticket out on Friday 7/24. Shane told me I could do 7/25 delivery as long as I am willing to not do the factory tour. After doing the buyer's tour I don't know why I would do the R8C tour...
Ticket prices have been skyrocketing the last couple of days so I am just pulling the trigger for two seats.
I can't imagine that the car won't be ready for pickup next Saturday. Not with everyone getting their EYT's. I would still push on Shane to take delivery of the car and have it prepped and then all he needs is MacMulkin to get the invoice. It can't be that difficult to figure out adding another $25 to the EYT option for the "labor" of removing a chrome bar.
