2 people paid $5 grand to pick their VIN.

Short run!!!

Btw, I know those who have dropped much more than $5K and gotten much less than a VIN.

I wonder if this counts sold orders on cars not built yet, which mine hasn't been. If so, I will probably have a 1 of 1 2018. Only 198 Z51 convertibles sold, of which only 28 are M7s, and only 2 Stingray convertibles are Sebring Orange. There's no way to tell whether the other one is a base or Z51, manual or automatic.

If the numbers are accurate, it's quite likely the only Z51 M7 convertible in SO, which is pretty much the only reason I ordered new. I like to buy lightly-used, CPO cars, but knew I'd never find one with those specs.

I wonder just how much of the VIN you can pick. I mean certain numbers/letters have to be there because they mean something right? I mean I can't just say "Well I pick a VIN of 0000000000000000".

It is actually "Customer selectable VIN ending", so my guess is that you can only choose the last 5 digits provided they are not already used.

2300 Z06 and only 698 7 spds?????
Just guessing but pretty close 1500 in 2016 6800 in 2017 2300 in 2018??

Since this report is the end of 2018 production, it looks like you'll have a 1 of xx 2019.

According to Mike Furman, as well as "Angela from Customer Service," my TPW is 1/15, and it is a 2018. Orders closed the 2nd week of November, but 2018 production continues through the week of 1/22 the last I heard. Since all the 2018 orders have now been scheduled for production, they'd have the final numbers even though all the cars have not yet been built.

449 Z06 Convertibles and only 41 Torch Red Z06 VERTS!

Yep, the C7 is the first generation in a long time that Arctic White tends to outsell any shade of red. Must be all the contrasting carbon flash...

I wanted the white. However I always try to be the person who does not do what most do. So I went with yellow cause it was a lower number of buyers.

Always Red Dave

White is definitely the most popular color on the C7 in all forms and just looked only 80 Artic White 2018 Z06 verts built.

I can't believe how well Ceramic Matrix Gray sold - #3 color, and I have yet to see one on the road.
With the GS, Z51 sales have plummeted to just 8% of all C7's and Base cars outnumber Z51's by almost 4:1.

Foosh

Having ordered a new Z51 just like my old Z51 except for color, I'm not concerned about that. Less demand, but also less supply, and it all evens out somehow. I just prefer the clean look of the narrow-body, and while we may be in the minority, there are enough of us.

The same market principle applies to the demand for manual vs. automatic. Finding a narrow-body, manual, Z51 convertible is very hard, as it was when I was looking for my '14, but there are enough of us who really want them.

My Z06 was built yesterday with the last numers 2053.

My Sebring Orange GS A8 was produced today 1/5/2018 ...vin ending 5555 ...

Jeff V.

I stand corrected. Please accept my apologies.

Foosh

Certainly, no apology is necessary.
