Default Wow...that was fast!!!!

I gave my dealer the order for my Grand Sport on Monday 15 August....dealer had allocation but the Red Calipers were constrained....GM accepted the order for production on Monday 22 August.....my Arctic White Grand Sport rolled off the line on Monday 12 September.....29 days from ordered to Bayed! I can't wait! Here it is coming off the line Monday morning. I purchased the NCM Photo Album and Lori was kind enough to send me a couple of photos Monday afternoon! AWESOME!!!! Great dealer experience as well....my 3rd Corvette from him.

That is pretty fast, I think my 15 was 34 days from order to existing. Then it was another 2 weeks before it was in my garage. Waiting for it get trucked to the dealer seemed like the longest part because I knew it was out there somewhere and I wanted to drive it.

Not necessarily, Museum Delivery's generally have a 2 week hold.
