Default Delivery question ????

Hard to believe that the 4 largest Corvette Dealers have not received any C8s unless they are being smart and not advertising the fact until they are ready?????? Or is it just a slow movement of cars coming out of BG..

Got to love the internet. What happened to the good old days when you ordered a car and didn't give a crap until the dealer called and said it's here.

strange how my original statement changed when you quoted me. It still says the same thing, but different.

Something like 16 truckloads left today already with a very special one for Ontario. Does not sound too slow.

160 cars leaving today when 2000 have been built sounds slow to me.

Like everything at GM the deliveries were probably been figured out by 50 people and approved by 2000 execs who signed it off.

I took pictures of a bunch of them, but I do not want to post, as that can be done by the owners. However I did go for a ride in Mr. Kerbeck's C8 and did a quick video of it, check out the Kerbeck Corvette Facebook page for the Facebook Live video. The "Dipped" interiors look amazing in person!

Here is a good shot in the sun of Ceramic Matrix next to Arctic White.

There could be 600 or more gone already.

It's pretty basic math. I think that between GM and the shipper they will have it figured out. Cooper has plenty of resources.
