have your dealer print out the GM order workbench & email it to you. the order # will be on the top. if he won't do that then you do not have a submitted order. my Z06 order was submitted 10/16/25 & went to event code 3000 in just 2 weeks. i checked yesterday & it is still @ 3000.

The dealership is Ken Nelson Chevy in Dixon Illinois. I don't think they sell to many Corvettes, mainly trucks. This is the only dealer close to me? Should I look for another one farther away? Or should I try and find one on the lot somewhere? Up til now I haven't had much luck trying to find one that I want with the options I want?

Thanks for the info. Although I wish it said something different? I guess I can expect a long wait for my Corvette! Why would they lie to me like that? Sooner or later I would have found out when my car never showed up? I wish I could find one without ordering it? I have been looking for a while now and haven't found one with the options I want. It is very discouraging! Thanks to you all for the help.

I wish I could afford a Z06 but unfortunately I cant? I am looking for a Stingray, black on black, 20 spoke gloss black rims, red calipers, protection package, High wing spoiler. Nothing outrageous. I have a negotiated price of 70,500$ for this car. Not including tax and title.

Are you talking about these wheels that I had on my 2025?

Hey I just wanted to let you all know that I bought a 2026 Stingray. Not exactly the one with all of the options I want, but it will work. Thanks for all of your input on everything! It helped me make a decision on the best way to proceed.
Thanks Again Rick
