I am happy for you but the temperaure certainly went up in here. Incidentally, I called my dealer today (Rick Hendrick City Chevrolet) in Charlotte to see if he had any udpates. My salesman said that they had 3 verts on the property. 2 that Mr. Hendrick ordered for himself and 1 for Dale Jr. There are two other customer orders ahead of mine that also haven't arrived yet. I understand that people with the Earnhardt and Hendrick name get to jump ahead in line but dealer orders? I'm not so upset for myself since I was a little late to the party anyway...but for the rest of you that have had deposits in since day 1 . It is about time to DEMAND answers. If it is just due to QC reasons, they should be releasing them as they get cleared.....but that isn't happening. They are holding all customer pre-sale orders for some reason. ....Again, I'm ok with my status but my blood would be boiling if I was in some of your shoes. Good luck to all (included me)!

I can't believe I've had money down on this car since 2007 , and still waiting and people are walking in and driving away with one while I still wait. This is just not right and I hope gm get's their act together soon. I will never preorder a new model ever again,thanks gm

I'm also happy for person or persons able to go out and buy off the lot. But when telling my wife about this she responded quote unquote "How the F*%K is that possible", and this is coming from someone that hasn't followed most of the drama thus far, but knows we have tried to do everything right in the ordering process. It is somewhat fustrating

Aren't the people buying cars right off the lots simply being less picky? It would seem to me, that those of you with orders may have specified cars to such precise standards, that the ones which show up by allocation are not being offered.
There may be some picky reasoning why they can't offer right of refusal on the ones that did show up - might annoy GM corporate, if too many special orders are being cancelled based on customers substituting them with stock cars. |

Five stages of Grief
This model falls perfectly with what has been happening with this purchase.
The progression of states is:[2]
Someone posted that we should just accept it for what it is and that we're getting a quality product by waiting. My analogy is going to a restaurant where you have reservations and ordering your steak and lobster. the table next to you is seated after your drinks have arrived, yet are paying their bill and walking out after eating Steak and lobster while your meal still hasn't arrived. You would complain to the managment, yell at your waiter, and demand redress. WHO DO WE DO THIS WITH? I'm bouncing back and forth between anger and depression right now. |

You romantic fool! I'm still holding out hope that there is a good explanation to all of this. The leaky roof story is starting to not hold water......so to speak. Maybe they are shipping them all with a big thank you present from GM. The supplier of said present is having a hard time accumulating enough gold to fill the order. They have established a plan and set up booths in malls across the country offering to buy old earings from elderly woman at 1/4 of it's real value. See. Now don't you all just feel silly?

How about these poor sales people trying to explane to there customers why there car is not here but they have one for sale on the show room floor. I'm sure it's just as frustrating for them
