I hope Grieco let Bowling Green know, so they can be ready!

Doesn't seem like a dealership to buy a C8 from what I just saw. Thier 2025 stingrays are all over MSRP with fee's. That particular dealership received 8 cars total last year. 2 Z's and 6 stingrays. So it will be secluded list that will fill up quick. Not to mention they will take a bunch of peoples money for cars that are not coming out for years to gain interest in the bank and the dealership will probably never be able to present you a car. Oh and if they did. I can only imagine the ADM they will be wanting in 2029 for a C9. LOL. It looks like they have 2 other dealerships under the owner so they can get other cars for those looking to pay over MSRP.

I checked with the Chevy Zone Rep and she told me that Grieco has made a commitment to GM to be a top three Corvette volume dealer within 5 model years. GM is providing Grieco with additional allocations starting with the current model year and if they meet certain purchase plateaus, they will earn up to 1400 allocations by the '29 model year. Or at least, that is what the voices in my head told me...

What a great scam ... get some foolish shmucks to pay $3 - $5k "deposit" and hold for 24 months - they invest and make more coin while you sit and say "oooh, I am on a list for a C9 in 2027"

If what is under that cover is a C9, I don't think I want one

Yeah they look like they have learned a "thing" or None from the top dealers in the country. Looks like they are well on their way to getting a car Lott full of cars. LOL
To each their own though. I will not be shopping here in the near distant future. Keep us informed with their transformation to the top 10. Maybe they are just getting out the blocks slow as you can see below:

It's a generic photo. Nobody knows what the shape of the C9 will be except for a very few designers at GM, and that shape is likely not finalized.

And has 2027 been announced by GM? No.

My GM friend has told me 2029-2030 for C9 and no Vette sport ute in plans. I am guessing that flyer is some odd way to drive Corvette buyers into the dealer today.....I am think8ng scare tactic to make one believe the next gen Vette is an electric sport ute.

Florida dealers ordered my C8's from MM and took paperwork to DMV for free and took about 10 minutes. Electronic filing fee $550.00 & $1,300.00 dealer fee probably want to sell you nitrogen air in your tires for $100.00 also.

I wonder if they have a Helium Option for tires too to help with reduced road friction?!?

Yes, FL dealers in general, from my experience while shopping, are out of touch with rest of major Corvette selling market
