GM has never tried to make the Corvette exclusive. They are adding shifts in Kentucky to ramp production as much as possible to meet demand. They want you to be able to walk into a dealer and buy one. Might take a few months.

Good article on Jalopnik regarding the mechanical bits of the car.
I'm still surprised that they finally made the Corvette mid-engine but it looks like they have a winner with this car.

I like neat cars.
Omg... clutch kicks!!!This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
That seems like a tall order, since there’s no clutch pedal, but there are paddle shifters, and there is a “double paddle de-clutch feature,” which Chevy says “allows the driver to disconnect the clutch by holding both paddles for more manual control.”
Def going to be a sick car but everyone is going to have one haha. Not that it’s a bad thing, but they’re sure not going to be a head turner after the first year of them on the streets.
Any dealer that would do that is obviously not someone you'd want to deal with.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
We are selling all of our C8's at MSRP.
We had a customer offer us 100K today to jump the line and we turned him down.
Haha. I've never been into Vette's personally. That's why I wasn't even checking out this thread until the tag, lol. This one does look tempting though. I guess never say never, but I doubt it.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

That was what I was hoping for when I posted, and it makes solid financial sense for GM. They have a real winner on their hands by the looks of it, and what a shame it would be to not capitalize on the hype (justified IMO). As Jeremy Clarkson once said "Well done fat Bob from Kentucky".This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Wow, integrity. What dealership are you at if you don't mind me asking (you can PM me if you don't want to say, but such a dealer is where I'd like to put my business, and I don't have a GM "guy" anymore). How are you handling the customization options regarding all the different seats/stitching/etc? I know which seat I'd prefer and the Z51 option, but other than that these are the only options that are "must haves" for me. Are you taking deposits right now as well?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
When these actually hit the floor, I'm >99% confident that you will be incorrect. This is a gold mine for demand pricing and no dealership (no business of any kind really) is going to leave that money on the table.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
What a time to be alive! We have all this, plus lots of half ton trucks making more than 400 Ft-lbs of torque. It's the golden age of power, we'll be telling our grandchildren about this.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Agreed. This corvette is nothing short of something to celebrate, whether you want one or not.

This makes no sense. The law of supply and demand works just as well for new cars as it does for every other thing in the universe.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
