Default GM points?

When I purchased my corvette last week, I ended up with “21000 points”. Are they worth anything in buying accessories/parts? Thank you

They are worth about $100 from the GM store.

It's ~$100 you can put toward just about any customer-pay item at a dealership (parts, service, accessories, new vehicle) or additional items like OnStar & data plans. I put mine toward the battery tender, so it only cost me ~$27 after tax.

https://accessories.chevrolet.com/

You can redeem the voucher at the My GM Rewards website (www.mygmrewards.com), but you have to take it in to the dealership to actually use it (except for on items like OnStar and data plans).

You will end up with 27,000 points when all is said and done. That's what I wound up getting after buying my GS 3 months ago. 1000 for going paperless, 1000 for hooking up GM rewards with GM financial (if you have a loan) 1000 for this and 1000 for that etc..I don't know what that 5,000 points was for as I never had anything fixed on the car other than having the dealer put some expel on the car before delivery but that was not thru GM. I bought the car on AUG 2 and had the points by Aug 13 as you can see.

Bank them for when you have to start paying for oil changes on your C7.

I used mine for oil changes on my other GM vehicles.

I bought my GS stripes with the points. Worked great!

Man, if I haven't mentioned how great those look on your car yet, I should have. Love the subtleness of the black on the dark blue.

This past June, GM had a special for Father’s Day when you got double the dollars for the same amount of points if you used them to purchase accessories.

Although not a lot, the points are a nice bonus for buying the car.
