Mine did not get any on Nov, Dec and they originally said that they didn't get any in Jan. They contacted me 4 days after the normal monthly allocation date and said they were given a few for Jan. One of them was for me! However, these last few weeks have gone by slower than the previous 6 months!

According to MECF, some dealers got very large allocations. Last month, some big dealers got none. GM may be balancing over time, rather than each month. There's one more allocation cycle for 2022s, in March.

The only way to find out is from the dealer themselves

I believe it stands for the Mid Engine Corvette Forum (midenginecorvetteforum.com), which is another Corvette Forum but dedicated to the mid engine generation...

My Dealer got one in January. Fortunately it was mine! Went to 3000 in a week. TPW 2/21. That was fast, fingers crossed 🤞

Congrats! The parsing out of allocations has been a bit odd. My dealer - a large Chevy dealer but small on the corvette side - was consistently getting 5 to 8 allocations every month and I was near the top of the list finally after September, then ..... nothing. None for October, none for November, none for December with no explanation from GM. Super frustrating. Then, in January they got 10, including mine. I'll have to ask them next week if they got any for Feb.

Wow… You got a Allocation way back in November of 2021 and it is just now being built. I thought GM was caught up based off of others TPW and delivery dates. About 6-8 weeks from 2000 status which is GM production accepting order.

My build was affected by the tornado in December. My original TPW was 1/3 but the plant got hit and shut down 1 week prior to Christmas for repairs which moved my TPW to 2/7. All of this can be found in the November Allocation thread.

I got on Stingray list in Feb 2021, so it was a 1 year wait to get an order actually placed this month! The 0 in January did not help….
