Default 3rd consensus status 2000 today

Hey all, been lurking around here for a bit learning tons from the posts. Put an order in back in late August after I decided this was the car for me. First Vette. I was #7 out of 9 at a small dealer in Ohio but got bumped up due to the A8s. I was worried my dealer wouldn't get an allocation until after A8 ordering opened up, but I'm happy to report that I'll soon be joining the 3000 crowd as I'm sitting at 2000 as of this morning!

Car is Shark Grey M7 3LZ Kalahari with only option of FAY. Thanks to the major contributors to the forum for all of your insight. I'm looking forward to being a member the Z06 community.

Congratulations on your first Vette!!! The Shark Grey is a beautiful color, saw it in person on a Z06 in MN and it was stunning!

Welcome to the Shark Grey club.

I wouldn't call a 9 allocation dealer small. 9 Z06's means that dealer sold 60-70 stingrays last year. Once you get past the top 5 or 6 big boy dealers (Kerbeck, Macmulkin, Hendrick, Coughlin, Les Stanford and Criswell 70 is a significant number.
