My guess would be between 100 and 150 per month based on their order status list. Could be as high as 1500 total.

It's also possible that even though you are #1 at your small dealer that they weren't offered ANY allocations yet. Yes they said they should get a small number in the" first build cycle" or first round, but they may not be offered those until January. Still in the first round.

My dealership who is also a smaller dealership has 7 "first round" allocations. Thus far, they had 1 picked up in Sept, and 2 today. Too bad for me, as I'm #4........ so I'll be first up next Consensus ( January).

My salesman should be providing me my TPW tomorrow or at least the X order code. I could then see if Corvette Concierge knows the TPW?

My order was picked up Thursday. It went to 2000 status Friday. Should have a TPW soon. I will be in Bowling Green to drive a C8 on the Motorsports Track March 13th. Wouldn't surprise me if my car is being built at that time.

I'm in Canada and can explain what appears to have happened. GM Canada issued a bunch of constraints on Thursday the 12th. It now looks like it was a giant ****-up. So on the ordering date that many had been waiting months for, some were turned away and lost their place in line because of these "constraints".

Then at 3:55 pm on the 19th, GM Canada issued a retraction, and all constraints were off. All this led to much confusion and a few very pi$$ed off customers.
