Jeremy, are we going to see a replacement to Dual Velocity?
Starting a LBR thread sounds like a give away.

Yes, it did. I was afraid that I was going to have to detail it as my wife was drooling all over it.

I'm right there with you Jerry. We should know more tomorrow. The constraints last time were for 8% to be built the week of 10 Aug. Lets see if they up that for the week of 17 Aug.

From my experience watching the constraints come out on Thurs to be finalized by dealers to GM by Tuesday.

Looking forward to hearing back from (Ammo) others on LBR, plus event codes and TPW's.

OMG! I am in love...need to ditch the interior, the AD seats just don't match. Black interior would be OUTSTANDING.

I've also been in constraint hell. Ordered on 5/30 and still at 1100. First it was the color (LBR of course), then it was Z51, then it was painted roof option. I'm hoping the stars will align soon so I can see some progress after 2 months. I guess that's what I get for being stubborn on getting only what I want and not compromising.

If Your dealer is getting allocations I expect the LBR to start moving over the next few weeks. Hopefully tomorrow's constraints listing either goes away or it is higher than last weeks. I too have the regular painted roof, Z51, chrome and brownstone.

Totally agree--those 2 reds definitely clash! Black would look great.

LB Red is a gorgeous color. And, you're right ...Adrenaline red interior
would clash. But, this Z06 has Spice red interior and it works fairly well.

I'm getting it with Brownstone, but I like the idea of it with red stitching!
