Well, I found out my local dealer who has serviced our GM products for seven years has seven allocations with only one
spoken for. So I cancelled my order with another dealer and filled out the paperwork to order through my local dealer.

They are selling C8's at MSRP but you can sure run up the price with options quickly. Mine topped out at $106,000 including
the shipping fee.

Nice, looks like almost the same build as mine. When I saw how high it got I had to make some hard decisions on what I really wanted from the factory versus adding later. For instance I kept the STD silver wheels and will either paint them or swap for aftermarket. Also decided to forego the CF ground effects and other exterior CF parts as there will likely be significantly cheaper aftermarket. Finally cut out Z51/mag because I will only track very occasionally. All that brought it down from over 100 to about 80 which is far more palatable
