Can you share a link for that? It's highly unlikely Les Stanford sold for GMS since GM doesn't offer it.

Look on their Corvette inventory pg.2. You will see a few C8's already sold. It was listed yesterday it's no longer there today.

With C7 the supplier discount was available before the first model year was done. I ordered my 2014 Z51 and received the discount. The only issue was that it was made available towards the end of that model year and many dealers would not honor it because the car was still a hot seller.

I am retired from GM and eligible for the discount. In 2014 I was diagnosed with cancer and did not want to wait for the discount. Picked up my C7 in Jan. and I believe the discount became available in March. The same day the price went up $3,000. I will be 78 in July and hoping to get my HTC in May. No time to wait. Live goes on!

It has been drying up over the years, just a few years ago it was down to 9% . Easy to beat with year end sales!
