MacMulkin GS Orders
Hey there - I'm curious if anyone in the first 10 on the order wait list has heard from them yet? It seems like some dealers are taking orders, but it is unclear if those are allocated orders or just "pre-orders" in the system. Also, when is Chevy going to get the build & buy configurator live?! The visualizer is not cutting it.

Yeah, I mean its just a normal vette that’s gonna be made in decent numbers. It’s not a ZR1 or anything.
just go to your local dealer and ask what the discount will be on a 27 grand sport order. That’s what I did and most said $2-3k which is similar to what they do on normal stingray orders. From what I understand, most of my local dealers are on a cost plus basis, so you are basically getting invoice plus/minus whatever they want. Funny enough, none of these dealers really discount in stock inventory that much, like $3k on a SR or $5k on a Z06.

I sent my original email to them 11/19/2025 about being on the GS list.
I am in the low #30s with them, probably fell down the list as I sent a check vs wiring money. I bet they based it on money received, not initial contact.
I don't want GSX, and don't want any of the new colors, however I do want visible carbon fiber aero (if it is EVEN available without the Z52 track pack that requires Cup2Rs and CCBs). So who knows how constraints/allocations will fall.
I bought my 2011 GS through them new and had it courtesy delivered.

Adrenline Red w/ Black Suede Inserts
Competition Bucket Seats
Black GS Rims
Z52 Sport
Carbon Visible Aero (if possible)
Carbon Visible Roof

Just as important as sales price (no ADM) is an allocation. Safe bet is an order from one of the top 5 dealers to get an allocation. I know MM, Les Stanford, and Criswell are all at MSRP for a GS order. I placed my deposit with Les Standford as they had the shortest list for GS at the time.

I actually think MSRP is high for a GS. I am on the list at a few local dealers at $2-3k off. Sure, might take longer for them to get an allocation, but I am in the top 5 at multiple and number 1 at my local dealer, so timing will likely be similar vs being in the 50s or 100s at some of these larger places. Every dealer was offering $2-3k off MSRP right off the bat on a GS order. Didn't even take any crazy negotiation.

Not too concerned about my local dealer coming through. I went to 4, and 1 was at sticker and 3 were below. Worst case I wait a few months longer and pick one up at macmulkin at a larger discount in the winter or next year. I have plenty of other cars I can drive in the meantime.

Checked the waiting list on the MM website this morning and no change so far, but also not sure how that usually works. I assume your number on the list drops as those higher on the list are processed, but curious when does that happen? i.e. when their order is placed, order accepted, status hits 2000, etc.

I don’t know, maybe my local market just isn’t great for Corvette’s due to the high personal property tax and winters.
I’m looking forward to speccing one out though, I will likely do a 3LT HTC Admiral Blue over Santorini Blue is what I’m leaning towards. Luckily, Chevy prices are more reasonable than Porsche and Ferrari 😂

Email from MM this morning about the first round of allocations. The highlights:
The following options are unavailable for this round of allocation.
- CFZ Carbon Flash Painted Carbon Fiber Ground Effects
- CFV Visible Carbon Fiber Ground Effects
- GTR Admiral Blue Metallic
- GEC Pitch Gray Metallic
- CF8 Electrochromic Roof Panel
At this time we don't believe we can get the Z52 Track Performance Package. (Not the Z52 Sport Performance Package)
