RELIABLE intel says it's a very temporary adjustment. Friends. TPW was moved from 8/13 to October something,, then 8/20, confirmation from NCM it will be completed 8/22!!!!!!!

TRUE. TPW's for that time frame not released. Sounds like he moved OPs Allocation down the list to the last quarter,.

Dan, I had a Dealership try and play this game. They usually know what Quarter they are getting their allocations, they have NO idea what month/TPW. No reason to be changing where you are on the allocations. I would find another Dealership. =(

With a TPW your car should be built that date, unless something changes in production. Right now all is good after that last adjustment.

I wonder if the CF "shortage" is impacting cars being assembled? My car went to 3800 almost a week ago, and since then it has shown as Code 4B00. Both to my Salesman and through Chevy Chat, we're being told it's "in quality control." I have no idea what would take so long, and while of course it's pure speculation, I wonder if my car is just a few carbon fiber parts short of shipping. So near, yet so far! Frustrating.

Interesting premise to think they would build the cars without for example the hood CF pieces and the CF wing let’s say and just wait to put them on and then release the cars...

I know it sounds a bit "grassy knoll," but who knows? I wish they could give me an explanation. But Chevy Chat will only say "it's in quality control," and nothing more. Can any of those out there who know the process well divine anything from that Code?

I actually don’t think its “grassy knoll” at all...that would be the best approach so they lose as little time as possible, I hope they are doing that but I don’t know...

My salesman (whose opinion I highly respect) thinks they're just behind in updating the codes. He thinks the car is in transit and we'll just know once it shows up. I hope he's right!

The museum's website says that "the first available date for delivery is approximately two weeks from the offline date of the car." The lady I spoke with said the offline date is the day the car is finished. They may be doing that for cars delivered to the dealerships. Last weekend four unsold ZR-1's were delivered to Los Angeles, one per dealer.

Cool! I didn't know the TPW could actually move backwards. Thank you. So now I'll keep checking it with renewed hope.

Hey...saw u were 969, mine is 989. that was a good day tues....had a bad day Monday...took my '16 C7.R to the Chevy garage to put new Michelin SS ZP on it....they must have dropped a lug socket on the rear rim and taken a chip out of it removing the tire...claimed it was a rock chip..HAHA....then when trying to remove the first tire, front, ground the paint off of the rim. now they have to get me a new front rim, the rear is a he said, I said situation,, so guess i will have to try and spot paint it...It's showing the yellow where the black is chipped. first messup on the car....put the old CUP 2 tire back on and left. However, a month ago the C7.R (13,500 mi) developed the A8 "SHUDDER" at low accelerations between 1200-2000 rpm in 6-7 gear,....wonder if ZR's with A8's will get the "SHUDDER"???. GM has a bulletin on it, claims its the torque converter, and the solution may be to replace it. Maybe we should ask Tadge if there is a difference in the Z06 and the ZR1 TC. (But I don't know how to post a question to him !!)
