I had a situation similar to yours trying to order my 2018 ZO6, at smaller dealership that I had previously bought my C6 Grand Sport from. When I spec'd out the ZO6 they couldn't give me ANY info, no pricing, estimate of delivery, or availability of options. This went on for a couple weeks, and I contacted one of the larger Corvette stores, they had all the info, pricing and the ALLOCATION. I gave them a deposit, they ordered the car and I took delivery 7 weeks later. I learned firsthand that if the dealer doesn't have the allocation, it ain't gonna happen, the stores that sell lots of Corvettes have the information, pricing and allocation and can get you the car you want.

I will be speaking to the manager this Morning...Hopefully it went through if not I will be going to a large dealer. Is there a way to verify if the build code is 2000 or do I take the word of the manager?
