Last week i ordered a 2LZ night race blue Z06/Z07 with exposed carbon ground effects, comp seats and M7. Constraints aside, what is the average wait time for a museum delivery order? Dealership is telling me they dont have any estimate as far as time.

 

<p>NCM Delivery does not get any kind of priority over non-NCM cars. The critical factors are allocations and constraints. If your dealer has an allocation that allows all of your options and assigns your order to that allocation, then about 6-8 weeks after that. Since the visible carbon fiber ground effects are constrained at 15%, that is a big hurdle to get past.</p>

 

is there a way to check allocation from dealer to dealer? i understand the larger dealers have more allocations. my main concern is that i am being told they have an allocation and the order is in, but they have no allocation and i wait around longer than i need to when i could have ordered from another dealer.

 

You have to rely on them being honest with you. I initially went with a local guy, he told me up front that he only got maybe a half dozen allocations for the year, I waited about three weeks then decided to go with a forum dealer, and just went 2000 on my order today after two weeks. My biggest constraint was Long Beach Red but that's gone now.

Your constraint could be worse, compounded by a dealer with no allocations (which makes constraints moot). My recommendation would be to call one of the forum dealers who you absolutely know gets allocations. Just my two cents. Good luck!

 

<p></p><p>Ask your dealer how many 2015 Corvettes they sold. If the number is small, you have virtually no chance of getting the car from this dealer, as 2016 allocations are likely to be very similar to 2015. Ask your dealer how many allocations they get each consensus cycle. If they are unwilling to tell you, that means they are hiding the fact that they most likely won't be able to get you the car. With a 15% constraint, that means that roughly 1 in 7 allocations will be allowed to order the visible carbon fiber ground effects.&nbsp;If they only get 2 or 3 allocations per cycle, the odds of them getting one with the constraint is not very good.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p></p><p>This is good advice.</p>

 

Is 6-8 weeks the norm (assuming the dealer has an allocation) for Museum delivery? I saw one post with this number. What has it taken others who had Museum delivery?

 

I ordered from Mike Furman at Criswell on 7/23. Got a TPW of 9/14 and my car was built on 9/11. The first day available to me to do museum delivery was two weeks after the car was built. The museum folks told me that, it's a two week wait after production. So if I could've made it right at two weeks after production it would've been about eight weeks.
