Coin flippin' it bro
I just spoke to my guy at the dealership, and let him know that you're hitting a few road blocks back in Cali and may be interested as well. Here's an excerpt from his email....."Also, let your friend know that I've already taken deposits from about 10 customers in CA already so I'm prepared to help him with his order as soon as he's ready." The dealership is the #1 Corvette dealer in the country and they're getting 507 Vettes within the first 6-9 months of production. Regarding deposits, I had to put down $2000 since my order was pretty basic since it's something they could keep as a stock car, should I cancel. But the more unique your order is the more money is required as a down payment. I asked him about when I can expect the first batch of them in since I made my interest know the day after the C7 was revealed, and here's what he said..."As far as timing, at this point it’s difficult to say. It's really going to depend on how the start-up of the assembly line goes as well as the early quality control testing goes. No one knows for sure how long it will take to get the line running at full speed and that’s what we need to know. In fact, the reason Detroit told us that our initial allocation would be for the first 6 to 9 months because they wanted to five themselves a 3 month window to get the line to full speed. In a perfect world we'd like to see our first batch of cars arrive in time to take to Corvettes at Carlisle but at this point it's anyone's guess. Of our initial allocation of 507 2014 Corvette Stingrays for the first 6 to 9 months, 355 of those were coupes. This means that we should get 40 - 50 per month once GM gets all of the kinks out of the assembly process. At this point we have about 130 of those coupes committed so we are still in the very early stages of the delivery process. Also just an FYI: They also will not be charging one penny over factory sticker price So let me know what you want to do and I'll pass on his info to you, and you'll probably need just $2000 down unless you want to go crazy with options. This is from my order email: John XXXX Allocation:000123 Deposit:$2000 Paid:06/04/2013 Body Style 1YX07 Stingray Coupe w/Z51 $54,795 Equipment Group 1LT Equipment Group N/C Transmission MEP 7 Speed Manual Transmission N/C Exterior Color GBA Black N /C Interior Color 19* Jet Black N /C Wheels Q7T Wheels, Z51 Black Aluminum $495 Roof Panel C2M Carbon Fiber/Glass Dual Roof Package $2,995 Options ERI Battery Protection Package $100 FAY Carbon Fiber Interior Trim and Instrument Panel $995 FE4 Magnetic Select Ride (Z51 Only) $1,795 NPP Dual Mode Performance Exhaust $1,195 TTV Carbon Flash Spoiler & Mirrors (Z51 Only)$100 Personalization/GCA Accessories BV4 Plaque, Personalized N/C RWH LPO, Indoor Vehicle Cover W/A RZ2 LPO, Front End Cover, Black W/A V8X LPO, Custom Sill Plates W/A VLI LPO, Cargo Mat W/A VRS LPO, Cargo Shade W/A Preferred Equipement Group 1LT Package Contents: Active Handling Stability Control Air Bags, Frontal and Side Impact, Driver and Passenger Air Conditioning, Dual Zone Automatic Climate Control Aluminum Frame Audio System, Bose premium 9-Speaker Syster Brakes, 4-Wheel Disc, 4-Wheel Antilock Daytime Running Lights Driver Information Center Keyless Access/Start Mirrors, Outside Heated & Power Adjustable, Body Colored Oil Life Monitoring System OnStar - Directions & Connections 6-Month Subscription Power Tilt & Power Telescopic Steering Wheel Power Windows w/ Express Up and Down Remote Vehicle Starter (Automatic Trans Only) SiriusXM Satellite Radio (3-Month Subscription) Solar-Ray Tinted Glass Steering, Power, Speed Sensitive Rack & Pinion Vaiable Ratio Traction Control Wipers, Front Intermittent Z51 - Cooler, Rear Differential (Z51 Only) Z51 - Differential, Electronic Limited Slip, Rear (Z51 Only) Z51 - Dry Sump Oil System (Z51 Only) Since my order was fairly ordinary and just wanted to lock one in, I told him as far as color I may be interested in the Laguna Blue also, and he said it's not a problem, so we just did black on the initial order form. So it's between these 2 |

Yea, I'm pretty sure I'm going with black, especially since I just ordered the same plate I had in Cali, here in NJ...SSYNSTR, so I think that'll work well Maybe the first part of the email was from Detroit sent to the dealers, but the bottom part was when I received my order number after I paid the $2000 deposit and those were my selected options. If you contacted Kerbeck over here in NJ, then you may have gotten the same info as they're the largest Vette dealer in world. That's who I placed my order with and since the car I ordered would be considered fairly common I only had to pay the $2000 which is refundable, should my friend's dealership, Elkins Chevy, gets one that is similar to the one I want. Either way, good luck bro, but from what I hear they won't be cranking them out as expected by 3rd quarter of the year which would be August. They still have to make sure the new assembly line and facility are ready, and they still have a little bit of R&D to finish up on them. |

All you have to do is say the word brotha, and I can have an order form sent right to you and you can design your own Vette with what you want for not a penny over dealer cost. Here's my PO with the mock up they sent. Just say the word, cause those Cali dealers are gonna bend you over....and won't use lube
