According to this, your car was bayed and ready for shipment on the 15th, today is the 18th, yet you say it's been bayed for a week???

I know the wait is hard, but it's entirely normal for the car to sit for a few weeks till they get enough cars all going in the same direction to fill a rail car before they ship.

patience, grasshopper.

2012ZL1 · 05-18-2012, 12:27 PM

If he ordered stripes, the car will end up as showing it was bayed twice. Once when it's ready to go for strips, and the a second time after the stripes are on it and it's ready to be shipped to the customer.

Don't feel bad, what about us who had to endure that for 1-1/2 months back in Feb-Mar.

Yes however yours was bayed because of the QC hold !!!!

*mlee* · 05-21-2012, 06:54 AM

QC hold is a good thing... hang in there..

LINMUP · 05-21-2012, 08:12 AM

I work in Oshawa..I actually used to work for Gen-Auto Shippers who moves the cars out of GM and to the shipping yard. Anyway, I drove by the yard yesterday and saw row upon row of ZL1's waiting to be shipped...I figured there were about 100+...I lost count around 80....what a sight seeing them all lined up....what a gorgeous car..I envy you guys that are getting them!

Mrose · 05-21-2012, 08:28 AM

I ordered stripes so maybe it's waiting to go to whoever GM contracts with to get that done !Hope fully she will be on her way soon.

Erik@Torq · 05-21-2012, 08:30 AM

Mine has been bayed for 3 weeks, no stripes or anything on mine either :(

She is number 828!

Mrose · 05-21-2012, 08:33 AM

Erik@Torq · 05-21-2012, 08:34 AM

Don't worry it probably isn't for QC, but is waiting for the train to fill up. Mine did the same thing for two weeks. It went to being bayed, delivered to bayed like 4 times. I know it went to the stripe company and I probably missed the first train then it got back and had to be put back in the line to wait for the next train to be fully loaded and hooked up. Did you order stipres? Also I found out that GMconnects is a little behind on updates by 2-4 days so just keep that in mind. I had recieved my car on Thursday last week and I got an up date on Saturday that it was delivered to the dealership. I do have to tell you though it took 5 days for the railyard to bring it across town to the dealer. Now that is the worst waiting overall, when you know it is here in town and you still have to wait 5 days to recieve it. Hang in there it is well worth the wait for this car. I do have to tell you that I have been driving with in the breakin specs and I can tell that it just wants to go. The handling is very inspiring and comfortable to want to push it to the limits.

Mine was built 5/15 vin 1317 still at 3800 coming to Michigan also
