When my TPW got inexplicably and drastically moved from 01/01/18 to 11/20/17 this much earlier delivery created some concern. I started asking questions to determine what commitments I should endeavor to deconflict.
Per jagamajajaran, (who is worth his weight in gold) on this forum, cars made in November will not be shipped until December. The factory will then have a shipping backlog that they will have to work through. Cars that are heading to large volume dealers will most likely be shipped first because they can fill the transports more effectively.
I now have a TPW of 11/20 which is apparently the first week of full production of retail ordered cars heading to dealerships.
As an example, mine will be shipped to a Courtesy Dealership in Florida that does not do a lot of Corvette sales, so I now perceive it will show up in mid-December at the earliest.
Hope this helps. If it does, thank jagamajajaran because he is one of the few who knows what is going on.

I thought I would have had it by now, but I contacted the dealer to see what was going on. On Wed of this week he must have called the plant and learned that the trailer needed 2 more cars to be produced for Long Island, NY and then it would leave.
Who knows what that really means.......
BTW my order was placed on 8/12/17.

Mine was produced the 1st week of January and was sitting in the lot on Jan 5th. It is still there as of this morning (Jan 15) per Amoni at Kerbeck.
I guess they're waiting for a truck to SW Florida...

Mine was produced the same week. Ordered 21 October 17. Can’t believe it’s taken this long. The last one I ordered took 7 weeks. The one looks like it will be 12 weeks. Crazy!

True but you need to take into account. The fact that the factory was closed from July to November and all the orders that got put in during that time were built first, Second The whole assembly plant floor was revamped and as a result build time per unit was increased. Meaning they aren't producing as many units per day as they were just before the shut down.

Mine was built 1/4 and is still in the 4B00 - Bayed state. I keep telling myself I'll be happy if she arrives in CA anytime prior to March, but won't be disappointed if that expectation is exceeded.

Mine is the exact same, built 1/4 and sitting at 4B00. Can't wait, even if it will be too cold and snowy to drive her.
