Since it seems they are doing colors in batches I want to see if anyone ordering ZB has a production week or a built car? I have seen one order having a production week of 3/23 but none that have passed 3300 yet that I know of.

If you have one ordered can you please post the status of your order?

 

I had a TPW of 3/23 before they disappeared for my ZBM order. I just posted the last data from the orders at Kerbeck that are 3000 or above. I sorted their lists by TPW, MSRP and colors. There are 3 colors that have not been produced or have a TPW yet. ZBM is one of them Also only one 1LT has a TPW. It does look like they are somewhat following the original ramp-up plan so I don’t expect to see my ZBM order move for another 2-3 weeks.

 

Great color. I thought it was a one and done color but in person it is awesome. Black tridents are a must.

 

Going with gunmetal forged wheels. I didn't like any of the factory options.

 

My order was sent up on Feb 13 (1100), was 2000 on Feb 18, and is at 3000 now (Feb 21) I have bronze 3LT on order.

 

Wow! Is that normal to progress from 2000 to 3000 so quick? That's only 3 days, I thought it takes a few weeks?

I went to 2000 on the 18th as well. I need to email the concierge and find out if I'm also at 3000. Any idea how long it takes to get to 3300?

​​​​

 

Going to 3300 is the big question ,not sure either

 

I'm hoping it's a one year color for obvious reasons.

 

What are your specs of your build?

 

2lt, gt2 seats, natural/black 2 tone interior, carbon flash mirrors, and npp exhaust.

 

Longbeach Red is another one of those colors not produced yet. I was told maybe 3-9. No TPW yet.

 

yep,and I
think the yellow. I saw the kerbeck order list and some early deposits are still at 3000 waiting for the for the bronze

 

Just got word from the CC that I am also at 3000 which was a pleasant surprise and moving along. Anybody at 3300 and beyond? They didn't have a TPW but said it would be between 4/27-5/29. I know it was wishful thinking to get in on the 3/23 production week for ZB that has been previously mentioned.

 

I have a 2LT Z51 Zeus Bronze with natural interior, GT2 seats w/black belts, MRC, bright silver split spoke wheels, Engine Appearance Package and Front Lift Assist. My order was submitted on Dec. 21st and accepted by GM on Dec. 31st. I went to and have been at 3000 status since January 14th. I have/had a TPW of 03/23 which is my birthday. Four weeks ago all TPW's went blank, so I'm in a holding pattern until actual production. My dealership has had 5 cars produced and they've submitted a total of 12 orders. All cars build were pretty much in order of submission and I was number 6 on their list. The dealership has had one TPW that actually moved up earlier than what it was prior but the others have not reappeared, yet. Everything always happens on Tuesday or Thursday with GM and I'm hoping that I hear something soon but realistically, I'm thinking it'll probably be closer to my original date for production. I've been told I can expect my car mid April which is fine with me, but I just want some confirmation as to when it will actually arrive. I've already ordered the 'Edge Red' motor cover and hand painted the logo on it, which came out really nice, and the illuminated door sills arrived today. I plan to order the mats this weekend or NLT next wednesday, along with the battery tender and I'll be done. All the rest will be local things to get done upon arrival, such as Xpel, window tint and ceramic coating. I'm still in search of my aftermarket wheels and some new slotted rotors and Z26 pads.

As a side note, this has been a pretty **** poor process and I'll never ever order another car again. I realize the strike and all but that was no secret and negotiations should have been going on prior to the July 18th reveal of the C8.

Yes your story further reveals that GM Is following a roll out plan and certain car colors are have yet to be built , i do think when they finally get around to loading up the bronze paint you may be one the first one built. My wild *** guess, is that 3rd week in march . but what i know about all this stuff can be put on the head of a pin

 

what were the other 2 colors not made yet?

 

My Dealer said that originally looking at pictures he couldn't understand why they would even offer something as awful as Zeus Bronze for a Corvette until he saw it in person and now he thinks it's one of the best if not the best color available. He also said that every other order he has taken besides my yellow car is Torch Red. He also loved the accelerate yellow when he saw it at Daytona. He's been very clear about which colors he doesn't like too... . I know it's just one person's opinion but it seems pretty consistent that pictures do not do ZB and AYM justice...

 

The guy who does ordering at my place went to Ron Fellows and he got with me pretty quick after being there and told me that Zeus Bronze is amazing, especially when the sun hits it! He said of all the colors it had to be the best color and that he believes I made the right decision.
At Cars and Coffee last year at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway we saw a Ferrari 458 in bronze come in and everyone thought it was a C8 from a distance. That sold me on the color, besides I’m a low profile person and like to avoid attention. Had I had my wish I would have wanted Blue Velvet Metallic which my 2016 2SS that I traded was. Loved that color and it was a one year color, and my previous Red Jewel Tintcoat was a limited offering for 2010 as well. I’m hoping Zeus is a one and done color.

Blue Velvet Metallic ceramic coated with Trinity SB3

 

At that time two weeks ago those colors not built or scheduled to be built were:
Long Beach Red
Blade Silver
Zeus Bronze
and only 1 Elkhart Lake Blue.

 

Thank Fred, Does make you wonder why just those colors have not been made yet . I do hope it's a one years color too . It will stand out more .
