I had attempted to reach out to Maroone via email without success. I attempted to reach out to Daniels Long also which is where I purchased my 2012 GS to no avail. Daniels Long had been jacking up C8 prices by +/- $20k previously so I had not much hope for them anyway. With neither wanting my business I got on Ciocca's list. Maroone would be considered the low volume Vette dealer between the two. Too bad as Maroone is only 2 miles from my home.

Upon a call to Maroone I was informed they will get only 4 Z06s. The guy I talked BRIEFLY with was uninterested.

That means Chevy can set the amount of Z06 they want to make every month. Also they can place more / less Z06 allocations at specific dealerships. Or must they play fair and give equal amounts ( by % of sales) to each dealership??? If they do, could MSRP dealerships get a higher % of Z06's??????

Twice as long? Why, b/c of the chip shortage? It's a mass produced Chevy.

Hey,

I spoke with Maroon again two days ago. I called to confirm we were still at MSRP and got it documented. They did indicate they would be taking more on the list but are going back and forth on charging above MSRP for new deposits. If you call, be sure to call the north location and ask for Kyle. I accidently called the South one and those guys were on a whole different level. Kyle is in charge of the list at the North location and is super cool. I also spoke with Josh who I believe is the manager. Really cool as well.
