NCM is your best bet. Dealers generally don't have access as quickly as the museum does.

Your car is scheduled to be completed on 7/7/21. Typically, your first available date for Museum delivery is two weeks from the day your car comes off the production line. We can look further out, if necessary, based on your availability. We offer appointments at 7:45 AM or 10:00 AM (CT).
THX.....Maybe they only know specific days if you're getting NCM delivery, or maybe they only want to 'share' that specific info if you're getting NCM delivery. I'm not.

Broken Halo, have you gotten to 3400 yet? If you're a "MacMarchie", you'll have a partial vin at that time, and you can look at the production spreadsheet and get a very good idea what day your car will be made. Otherwise, your dealer should be able to get you the vin info when you go 3400 and again, the spreadsheet is there to use.

The spreadsheet is pretty accurate, but if you're on the edge of one day or the next, it can be off a day either way. But as an example, my vin is 100 units above the predicted first unit next monday. Since I'm in the middle of the pack for that day, I'm pretty certain that will be my car's birthday. If it turns out my vin was say 10 away, on either the beginning or end of the days projected numbers, I would be less certain of which day it would be.

Not at 3400 as far as I know. I'm hoping maybe next Thrusday. . I, unfortunately, ordered from a local small dealer 20 months ago . He has been all but totally useless throughout this whole ordeal. I've learned everything I know from this great forum, and the info given to me from the NCM.

With a few exceptions, looks like TPW'S are staying in the designated week. All looks positive. C'MON 7/19!

I ordered from a small rural dealership in central Pennsylvania, down at the bottom of the pecking order when compared with dealers such as Kerbeck, MM, Criswell, etc. No matter — they are a great dealership (and an awesome sponsor of our Corvette club!).

Anyway, I have found out that my order went to 3000 on 3/23…..sat there for a long time…..and then I got word on 6/14 that my TPW was 6/28. From reading this thread, it looks like I’m one of many who have the same timeline. I called Corvette Concierge today, and they confirmed that I’m now at 3400 and still scheduled for production next week. Hoping to have the car delivered to my dealership mid-July!?!

The car: 2LT coupe, RM, front lift, red engine cover, natural interior, etc. Currently have a lovely C5 vert that wins a lot of shows and has a lot of miles on it. Love it (am keeping it), but can’t wait for the new C8. Looking forward to communicating with this forum!

Welcome aboard!

It's actually surprising to me how many did stay in their original TPW after you factor in the 3 week shutdowns. Only about a third moved out of their original week and then only by one week earlier or later. Maybe it is just a coincidence but I have basically the same number moving up a week as those that moved back a week.

Looking forward to getting my car, but for now, I just want to get out of 3000 after sitting still for three months.

Just heard from Shane and was told my C8 is "3300 status…sequenced for production in the week of 7/5". No 'tentative', no 'target', just plain old 'sequenced'. I think I can finally rest assured I'm locked in. 17 days from today max and my car should be built.

I moved from 6/21 to 7/12 so I did move the whole three weeks. I hear that it will be worth the wait.

Me too. If not for the shutdowns our cars would have been built this week. Just hoping for no more shutdowns until they get the 2021's built.

Looks like the move from 3300 to 3400 pattern was repeated for the 6/28 tpws, if we can use MM's status page as an example for all. All of their remaining 6/28 tpw's plus a couple 7/5 tpw's moved to 3400 yesterday. Gonna be more happy vin reports coming...
