Are you guys actively contacting and researching to get the info re: your car's status or are you being fed info by your salesperson? I've found it difficult to get any useful info via corvette concierge and my salesperson (one of the "big 3") seems difficult to contact and getting real answers is like pulling teeth. I cant even get proper acknowledgement of funds being wired to the dealership as down payment, much less order status/build date on the car.

I'm not doing museum pickup.

I am getting a museum pickup but mainly got my information from the Chevy chat on their webpage as to status (3000 - 3300 and now 3400, although tomorrow will be 3800). After them giving me the status I'd write Shane at the museum to verify and he's the one who gave me my TPW at 3000 when the Chevy site never gave it to me until 3400. Write Shane at his email, shane@corvettemuseum.org and he will email you back within hours if not minutes as to your status. You don't have to have museum delivery. You will need to include your order number, and be sure to ask if there is a TPW (tentative production week) and don't do it every other day. I waited at least two weeks between requests. I never bothered my salesman about this as I didn't know if he got daily updates and it was just as easy to ask Chevy thru a chat.

Shane emailed last week saying my car was expected to be built Mon 8/23 and asked me to pick my tentative Museum delivery date, 9/13 or later. Found out from Chevrolet chat that it wasn't built Monday, but was built Tuesday the 24th. Serial # M5124279. Shane probably has it, but Chev Chat still couldn't give me my full Serial #.

Chevy chat can't really verify you are who you are so I think the info they give you is the most they can safely give out. Shane has your VIN, that's for sure and if you ask I'm sure he'll give it to you unless your dealer has instructed him not to so that they have to give it to you for some reason. I doubt that would happen though.

I just looked through your last string of posts on this thread and it looks like you went 3400 and a week later your are at 4000. Is that normally how quick it goes because that is fast?

I went 3400 on Monday of last week. Car was built yesterday. I do believe that is how fast you move from 3400, yes.

Got the email from Shane at NCM!

Mine will be produced on September 9 (though TPW stands at 8/30) !

I will take delivery on September 28, which is 8 days later than the earliest I was permitted, due to some conflicts.

Can't wait for a nice long but wonderful drive back from Bowling Green to south Florida !

Produced on Thursday morning 8/26 and received e-mail Friday evening that my car has been invoiced. Gave me my full vin and showed MSRP minus $1,000. price protection and $2,000. deposit. Wanted me to supply a little information so they can get started on paperwork because they are expecting a high volume of units and want to insure a timely delivery.

I signed all the paperwork on a car that was built on Wednesday today. Still sitting in BG, only 1.5 hours from me. I feel like I should just drive down and take it.

Did set up Onstar and set up an alert to tell me when it leaves the BG area.

Update, in a matter of four days from production 8/26 have been invoiced, electronic e-mail signature all paper work, setting up on-star, got my quote for transport (dealer initiated), wired funds and confirmed received with in hours and will be sending me Cert. of Origin from GM & Bill of Sale so I can go to DMV to get it registered.
Big shout out to MacMulkin for excellent customer service.

It was on a truck in Kentucky Saturday.
Its here today!


Talk about fast.... And I was worried the hurricane would slow the truck down from Kentucky to Florida.

I guess they saw that hurricane coming and they decided to get on the road road and I appreciate that!!
