Default TPW changing.....

I'm losing ground with my TPW. Was at 9/14 and now set for 9/28.
3000 since March 3.
R8C delivery on my C8 and info from the museum just this am. Was hopeful that with swing shift soon to begin, perhaps TPW's were being adjusted. Maybe I'm just asking too soon! Aren't we all?

How'd you get info from the NCM? Shane is on vacation. I emailed Lori and she hasn't responded.

EDIT - Lori emailed me just now. Still 3300 with 7/20 TPW.

FWIW , Last week my TPW got pushed back by more than a month, but Shane told me that the TPW's are "very fluid" right now , and all are subject to movement forwards or backwards as 2020 production progresses …..

This. I was 3/30 and am now 10/23. I do not believe that to be my actual TPW. I ordered in September of 2019 and moved to 3100 on 3/18 before shut down.

Retail STOCK order? My condolences if the delay is related to some other constraint like carbon fiber.

Car color, options?

Imagine going to 3100 and then back to 3000 in march put you at the back of the line, as your 3000 event code now has a march date on it, lol. I also went 3100 in march with initial tpw of 3/30. My order is for torch red and I havent seen any torch red orders with 7/13 or 7/20 tpw so I am assuming my tpw would be 7/27.

My TPW is 7/13, yet it's sitting on the assembly line with a finish date of 1 week from today.

It looks like GM is playing it conservatively with TPW's, under promise and overdeliver. I would rather it that way. I think plenty of our cars will be completed prior to the listed TPW.

Thanks for the tip C8Jake, I reached out to Lori at the museum and she confirmed my ELB Z51 Convertible build week (August 17). As we can't take Museum Delivery in Canada, I actually planned on ordering the Photo Album (as the next best thing) but that week already has a full allocation. Lori was quite responsive, it was a pleasure corresponding with her.
