There is a reason that they call it a TARGET production week and not a guaranteed production week.
After years of waiting for the C8 a couple weeks delay is no big deal.
I much rather they ramp up production slowly and ship cars that have gone through a rigorous QC process then have a repeat of the C7 rollout where car had to stored for 5 or 6 weeks while GM sorted out QC issue.
Maybe they learned from the C7 rollout and wont have the same issues with the C8 rollout.

Corvette concierge call
Hi All,
I spoke to Concierge and they are not sure when they are coming back... lots of questions on the disappearance and she is escalating for an answer. **Also confirmed another now actual fact that I speculated in a post many weeks back. They are following the original order months for the PRODUCTION of the vehicles. That is why folks are being moved up, their colors and trim levels are 2LT and 3LT, so even though their allocated order went in after many others of us they are jumping up in line. All about the almighty dollar, Chevy wants to get revenue in the door on the top priced units sold. Tesla not the only who ever thought of this!

I haven’t been the same person without my TPW.
It was my warm security blanket...

Blade silver 1LT
If you add the 8-10 weeks from production start for Blade Silver and 1LT from original order constraints timing, that gets you to my TPW of 4/6 - at least before they removed it.
Good news is second shift should make up and perhaps we will be sooner than April !
