I’ve noticed that the dealership has the best info. When I contact corvette concierge they had had no tpw. But dealership gave me a tpw of 2/08 before shut down. So I could be in the 03/01 tpw as a few others are. Won’t know until dealership contacts me again!

A few people are saying “January allocation” what does that mean exactly. Because I was told I was at 3000 on Jan 5th but order went in to GM in December and my dealership only submits orders when they have a allocation for it!

my dealer asked me to come in and finalize my order on 12/28/20. A few days later, he matched it to an allocation and I was then at 3000 status

Similar situation. Seeing that corvette concierge is behind on certain info. All I can do is wait for an update (which is fine I’ve been waiting since July 2019) bwaha

Sounds like you have a December allocation, which is fine b/c I am and hopefully others are interested in December allocations as well.

"The Bowling Green, Kentucky, plant that makes the sports car has already faced down time this year because of a supply constraint that isn't related to a global shortage of semiconductors. The plant is now expected to be down another week from March 1 to March 5 due to a transmission parts supply issue. It was also down the weeks of Feb. 1 and Feb. 8 for the same issue."

Status Check with Corvette Concierge
Received my allocation on 1/22/2021, Went to 3000 Status on 1.28/2021. Emailed Corvette Concierge this morning for a status update. Still at 3000. Noticed that the “Please contact us again” phrase is now a "4-5 week" recommendation. It was a "2-3 week" recommendation in previous update messages. The full message was:Thanks for reaching out to the Corvette Concierge! Your order is currently at the status of 3000 - Accepted by Production Control. No Target Production Week is available at this particular status. You can expect a Target Production Week for your C8 at status: 3400 – Broadcast.
Due to a temporary parts supply issue, we can confirm that Bowling Green Assembly will not run production the week of March 1. Our supply chain, manufacturing and engineering teams are working closely with our supply base to mitigate any further impact on production, and we expect the plant to resume normal operations on Monday, March 8.
Please contact us in 4-5 weeks to see if your order has progressed.
Thanks for your patience,
