This post is 50/50 GREAT information and THERE IS NO "LIST". It's all about money and timing. You want the car... Do these three simple things: 1. Call the dealers on the 24th to find how many they are getting and when. also find out if there is a mark up. 2. Be at whatever dealer you find that you want to deal with WHEN THEY OPEN on the 29th. 3. Take cash, be prepared to depart with some of it. Let all the fools who think bc they are on some magic list and sleep in be the ones who are complaining when they miss out. This is early 2009 all over. Ask some of those guys how their "list" worked out. Even if your on some list, don't think for a second that if I walked in 9:00 on the 29th with cash they would tell me no because so and so is supposedly coming in bc he's on the "list" not going to happen, my order is going in. Something else to think about... How many are on more than one "list"? Do you plan to follow thru and buy ALL those cars? NO, you'll buy one and the others are what... Just supposed to turn people away??? Get real on the lists... They are nothing more than words on paper! 1 more week... until then, nothing is a for sure!

Not saying I'm any less prone to being screwed over, but that's what my $500 deposit was for. At least I have a receipt stating what number I am on the list and a promised MSRP deal for the ZL1. That money will be applied to the order. Then again, my dealer seemed to have forgot that the ZL1 even existed last week when I stopped in. Believe me, I'll be there bright and early on the 29th.

Talked to my salesman today. He said to come in Thursday, as He will have options from GM on Thursday, so I can spec my order.

I see on the Chevrolet website that all chevrolets except the volt are eligible for the credit union discount and/or the retired military preferred price. Can you combine these? What about the USAA discount? It obviously applies to the ZR1, do you think it will apply to the ZL1? I was just wondering if anyone knew...
Thanks! |

Starting to look like I'm not getting one. Talked to a couple dealerships and they're going to try to milk them for all they can get and I refuse to pay any markup.

I spoke to my dealer. He has heard nothing of the 20th update. However, he is aware about the 24th allocation date, the 29th order info date, and the Nov 3, final order aceptance date. Based on my understanding, orders are accepted into their system on Thursdays. Thats it so far. I will be seeing them on the 24th. Some dealers are great. Some just suck. My dad and uncle were in the car business since 1959. I am well aware how this crap works!
If all this goes south, I will just build my own! |

The Internet Sales gal over at Ferman Chevrolet in Brandon/Tampa has a list for about 9 people. She laughed and said they may get 2 to 4 cars......i really didnt see how that was humorous.....the others in the Tampa Bay area are all clueless.
