Mine was two months after allocation also.

Finally took delivery of my C8….enclosed transport to my house because of snow and salt on the roads. 2 miles on the odometer from the factory, my first miles may not come until spring. Just happy to have her home.

Ben - The delivery was from our dealer (45 minutes away) and was provided by them free of charge. It’s definitely worth it if keeping the car out of the salt is important to you. Check with your dealer, they may even offer to do this for you.

Wow, that was nice of your Dealer to do that for you. My dealer is 45 minutes away also.. I’m going up tomorrow to fill out the paperwork and sign over a check. I’ll see what they say.

Has anyone with a C8 built the week of 12/6 received any updates regarding shipping/delivery? Mine was built Thursday 12/9 and was told by Chevrolet chat yesterday that my "vehicle is produced and going through the last step before being released to the carrier for shipment. At this time we do not have an estimate or eta at this time."

Default Just drove my C8 home today

Just drove my C8 home today. My car arrived on December 14 at the dealership but due to snowy conditions I drove it home today. 45 miles from the dealership. Road conditions we’re pretty dry today.

Probably was on the same truck as mine, which was dropped off to the dealership in Albuquerque on Monday morning(I'll ask mine in the morning if they met, lol). Will be posting pics tomorrow, just got home to Phoenix, AZ with her.

Has anyone with an order placed with MacMulkin been contacted about their car being damaged by the tornados and needing a new order placed? Based on other peoples posts and them sharing their VINs I have seen I am in between VINs that have been damaged and need new orders placed. My VIN is 10160. I emailed Shane at MM this morning to see if they had any info on my car so we will see what he says. Was just curious if MM has reached out to anyone and if so since I haven't been contacted yet then maybe mine was spared.

Doing museum delivery Thursday morning. Looks like they already have mine on Corvette Blvd., Delivery No. 8
Sold my 2015 to a local dealer this morning. They gave me about $3,000 less than I paid for it used back in April of 2017.

To follow up I just talked to Shane at MM, my C8 (VIN 10160) was part of the bunch that GM called a total loss. Shane said they already rebuilt the order and resubmitted it for me.

Have any of the October folks received any updates on their builds or has anyone who was built the last full week of production heard anything or took delivery yet?
