I’ll make updates to the spreadsheet tomorrow. With the shutdown last week I figured it would be good to wait and see how all of this panned out before updating again.

Received an e-mail updating the status from Chevrolet this morning. Seems like I moved to the next step, I mean, from 3300 to 3400. Asked an agent (Chevrolet Official Website) about the TPW, told the TPW is on 02/27. But Shane told me yesterday my TPW should be 03/09. Kind of confusing right now lol. But anyway, that's a good news!!
FYI. I received the status code 3000 on 01/25, and the 3300 on 02/09.

I read on another corvette forum that Q91’s are on constraint again. It seems to be accurate as most individuals without a TPW issued recently have them ordered. I haven’t been able to confirm elsewhere yet but if so, I hope this clears up soon!

I just received confirmation from a Chevy advisor that Q91’s are on constraint and there is no timeline yet to resolve this matter. Does anyone know if wheels can be changed after 3000 status?
Thanks

Oh really. Hope they won't give me the car without these wheels. I have a friend got his car without the Q9I wheel even he set the order, just the basic silver wheels.

Q9i wheels were constrained for several months at end of calendar year 2022. When January DOSP opened up, they were not listed as constrained, and as luck would have it, that's when my allocation came up. So I, along with many others, ordered Q9i wheels in January DOSP.
February comes along, and they are constrained again. So if you ask anyone today, are Q9i constrained, the answer will be yes.
Now, what does this mean for all the January orders that were placed when they were not on constraint? Will they all get them? Not sure, but if your order hit 3000, that is supposed to mean that GM accepted your order and will build it as configured... but that doesn't mean it will get built in a timely manner! So it could mean that some unlucky January orders missed out on Q9i as they got more orders for them than they anticipated, which caused them to be constrained again, and those January allocations will be delayed (Similar to August Z06 orders that went to 3000 but had visible carbon fiber high wing and are now waiting for those parts to be available again).
I believe if your January allocation made it to 3300 status, your order is sequenced with the assembly plant, and that *should* mean that the wheels are available for that car and it will get built in a timely manner. If you are still at 3000 and things are not moving, and you have Q9i wheels, they may have 'run out' of them and your order is going to be delayed.
So far, my order with Q9i is still at 3300, and shows estimated build date of March 9th or 10th, so I am taking that to mean they have the parts to build mine, including Q9i wheels.
We will have to see how this plays out with January orders... if some stay at 3000 longer, and don't get a TPW, could the Q9i wheels be the reason?
Someone asked can an order be changed at 3000 status? I believe it can be, but it is challenging to do so, and will essentially move you to the 'end of the line' of cars accepted by GM and push the TPW out further.

Same also with Q9I. Shane tells me 3/10 for the build date. And people with 3/9 build date started getting their 3400 e-mails today. Which means we both should get the e-mail tomorrow. Or...
