You are holding on to hope too strongly. It's pretty obvious you don't have one.

Sorry...............

If you don’t have an order number, and they can’t produce an order number, and corvette concierge can’t find anything associated with your name, then you do not have an allocation, plain and simple. Get on a top 3 list, then continue looking.

You aren't taking the advice we have given you. Tell them you want your order number. Not an update, just the order number. If they won't give it to you, they are giving you the runaround and you might be waiting indefinitely. However, if they can give you your order number you can find out your status in a number of different ways:

1. Go to Chevrolet.com and use their chat feature to find out what your status is at.
2. You can call the Corvette Concierge program at 1.866.424.3892
3. Last resort, email Shane at the Corvette Museum (although you shouldn't need to do this if you use one of the two options above if you just want to find out if your order was accepted or not).

All you need for the above is your order number.

Thank you, it is not that I am not listening, but other than calling and giving up not will produce a positive result either. Will look around large dealers even with If need to drive. I would not mind waiting like everyone else, but hard to not feel frustrated since they called and offered the car.

This is 100% correct! The Chevrolet.com -> Contact Us -> Chat option gave me all the info I need except the VIN. All that matters is the Status and TPW numbers.

Hi Folks,

I just kind of speed-read this post, but I received my VIN on 9/24: 01786

My dealer hasn't given me a delivery date yet, but I assume that means I'm close right..............?
I'm stoked.

'21 order originally placed March 5th, bumped to '22 in July.

Stupid question, I was just going to paste in the whole VIN, but I see everyone is just posting the last few VIN digits. Is there a reason for not posting the whole thing?
I mean its public record once you register the car right?

good news I think, I was finally able to extract a order number, it is composed of 6 letters. I have looked around for Shane’s email but have been unable to locate it. Are you able to help me with that?

thank you!!

thank you for all the help, I was finally told by Shane that I am still 1100 status waiting for an allocation. The truth came out, Shane mentioned they are waiting for an allocation. That is different then I was told, but better late then ever. This waiting for these cars suck!!

Before bugging Shane, try Chevrolet chat or call the Corvette Concierge program at 1.866.424.3892. They will let you know what status you are at.

if that is your Vin, your car was built last Thursday the 23rd. Depending on where it’s shipping to, I’d expect it very soon.
