Default GM C8 Model

I got a GM C8 model on eBay & am tryin' to find it's rightful owner. The car was traded in to a Dealer, who turned it around pretty quick. The original owner hadn't gotten the model from GM before he traded the car, & when he did get it the Dealer wasn't interested in hooking the model & new owner up. I believe that the Dealer was in Phoenix, no other info. The VIN is 1G1Y72D45L5105236, probably a July/August build. So if the new owner is a Forum member, have I got a Deal for you!

Thanks, JT

I don't know how to help, but that's pretty cool of you to try! I'm curious though, what's the color of the model/C8?

I actually don't know what color it is as I have not opened the box! Figured to let the newest owner unwrap his present.

Would have been nice for the Dealer to contact the Buyer and ask them if they wanted the Model.

Probably would have taken them them five whole minutes to look up the information and make a Phone Call.

I guess Customer Service ends the second they cash the Check.

Interesting, I just checked that website with my car & it really didn't tell me much about it. No colors, options, build date, Not sure what happened.

Searching the VIN on google led me to some auction site which showed that VIN at Luxury Auto Collection in Scottsdale AZ as stock #3874. White, 2LT, 255 miles. Never heard of the site I found it on, no pictures are loading on it either, but here's the link: https://www.skillter.com/ajax/descri...5195&app=false

It definitely was built on July 15, 2020 (see Daily Production Numbers). I also see it was sold at auction in September, 2020 by Luxury Auto Collection, 9160 E Del Camino Dr Ste B4, Scottsdale, AZ 85258. Where I looked you have to pay to see 18 pictures.
