That is what you think you traded it for. Over the months of waiting, your build will change many times!! Mine changes daily. Congrats and hopefully your wait is short lived.

Hope you actually get your c8 as planned instead of a 10k markup peace pipe from your dealer.

Make sure your dealer lets you know before you car gets accepted for production as my dealer Van Chevrolet in Scottsdale are the biggest thieves ands scumbags. My sales guy told me he would let me know a week before it was accepted so I can finalize my build, over the months I kept him updated on the changes but he lied to me and did not update my build and I got stuck with my first build. Would have upgraded to the 3lt, mag ride, front end lift and changed my interior color and would have gone with sliver. But I only found out my car was accepted for production from the Corvette Concierge and was not able to update my car.

While I realize you are in Georgia and I am not even close, if you don't mind I am curious as the owner of 2016 Z06 with 22k miles roughly how much the wholesale trade in value was. If you want to PM that is fine also. Thanks, Bob

I have purchased many cars from the Jim Ellis dealerships, different makes. Reggie is great, but Jim Ellis Chevy gets less Corvette allocations relative to Rick Hendrick Chevy, Duluth (RHD). RHD is in the top 10 nationwide in Corvette sales.

In mid Feb 2021, I started off by placing a deposit with Reggie for a C8 Z06, then stopped by at RHD and talked to Chris Lindamood (Corvette sales manager). As RHD gets more Corvette allocations, I also placed my deposit with Chris for a C8 Z06, then asked to be put on the C8 Stingray list. At RHD, I received an allocation in March 2021, my C8 was built on 7/2/21, and as I type this my C8 is literally on the truck on the way to the dealer. I ended up cancelling my deposit with Jim Ellis. My initial deposit at RHD also counts towards a C8 Z06 waitlist that I am on, whenever I am matched with a C8 Z06 allocation, I will just have to give another deposit when submitting my C8 Z06 order.

My suggestion, keep the deposit with Reggie, but give Chris a call/email to inquire upon his Stingray timeline. If you decide to go the RHD route, I can send you Chris' contact information, he is back from vacation tomorrow morning.
