That last line about no separate Z06 allocation group could mean lots of things though. However, I think people are going to run with the speculation on that post though. I seriously doubt a dealer will be able to fill their allocations with only Z06's. You could argue that line means there won't be any Z06 allocations at that time if the debut is delayed.

I agree, it could mean a number of things. In the past, GM did Z06 allocations based on prior Z06 sales rather than just total Corvette sales. I was expecting that GM would continue with the ADS restrictions. As some threads have discussed, maybe they should also do some allocation process like Ford just did with the Lightning.

I give up lol. We'll see the facts when GM releases real pricing & updates the visualizer or their site so we can build a real car.

Also, none of the speculation on allocation numbers means anything. We'll see what GM says.
