There were no production Corvette's in 1983. The MY was 1984.

How confusing is it to start making 2019 cars in JANUARY of 2018?! And with "No major changes are coming for 2019 as models, colors and options from 2018 will carry over..."

So why are they doing this?

I haven't been on here in weeks and obviously missed something! :lol:

Probably to add the ZR1 to the line up

I had ordered the 2018 Carbon 65 edition partly because I liked it's uniqueness, I valued the idea it would be somewhat rare.

Now in an absolutely ironic twist of fate, thanks to this new production timeline, I find that I am all but guaranteed to receive the most duplicated/replicated car of the 2018 model year cycle.

On top of that, the ceramic matrix gray color has not been very well received. It was anticipated to be one of, if not the absolute lowest volume color for 2018.
Fast forward just a few short months and here we are in a situation where there is a very real possibility that ceramic matrix could be the most popular color for 2018.
Given that there are guaranteed to be 650 carbon 65's, plus whatever numbers the color was ordered in across the rest of the line up. When you divide by a paltry 9,600 projected cars produced in 2018, there is a very real chance that the "take rate" could be well into the 20%+ range for ceramic matrix.
Who woulda' thunk it:confused2:
And just like that we did a complete 180° :rofl:

There is a Silver one there, however it was one saved from the crusher and was not a production car. There was no 1983 Model Year. Corvette production started in March of 1983 as a 1984 model.

It's going to be one heck of a production run for the 2019 model year. :yesnod:
