    Some good news on the recall.

    Scott, here are a few pics of my car. I got it a couple of weeks ago and paint corrected a few small spots then ceramic coated it right away before any serious road grime could appear. The weather has just started co-operating so am getting a few days here and there to drive it. Thanks again...

    Some good news on the recall.

    Great news… Just got the call, my car arrives at the dealership overnight and I have an appointment to pick it up with my grandson on Monday afternoon! With no other recalls evident I hope I can enjoy it for the rest of the season, now our good weather is just starting.

    Some good news on the recall.

    Thanks again Scott, Rick may have mentioned 2026 but all I heard was May 31st. And I had visions of already having to give up a car I have not yet recieved. 😁 I did go and check on recalls on the 24, and the only issue showing is the DRL issue, which will be remedied as my dealer receives the...

    Some good news on the recall.

    Scott, My car has been sitting in Vancouver for over a week now. My dealer is hoping to accept delivery some time later this week and needs at least 2 days to ready the car for delivery. I just watched Rick (Corvette) Conti’s YouTube “Tech Tuesday. And he mentioned a...

    Oh and I read through all of the responses on your May post - coupe vs HTC. And find myself agreeing with most of the rational listed. In the end it obviously comes down to personal preference and cash availability. I do believe I’ll enjoy the HTC.

    Some good news on the recall.

    Thanks for the window sticker Scott! I’m kind of surprised to see the Jake floor coverings as they were on constraint at the time and my dealer said we had to give them up to get an accepted allocation.

    Thanks for your comments Scott. I have a few questions hopefully you’ll know the answer to? I didn’t realize our window stickers were available. How can we view them? As I have already attended the Ron Fellows Driving School, can I nominate my son or a close friend to go in my place? I did not...

    Some good news on the recall.

    Scott, I’m happy with my choice of options on this new car. My 22 was my first corvette, and I think I was more concerned about the money, than worried about some small performance differences. However after attending the Ron Fellows Owners Classes, I was suitably impressed with both the Ron...

    Some good news on the recall.

    Thanks Scott, the 22 is in the picture and is very similar to my new order except the 22 was a non Z51 car where the new one is a Z51. I also moved up to the convertible, as seeing the engine in the coupe wasn’t quite as important as I first thought. (At least to me) I personally prefer a more...

    Some good news on the recall.

    Scott, I got word mid last week that my car was in Winnipeg. So hopefully it’ll be to Vancouver this week and maybe delivered to Nanoose later this week or probably the week following. Again, thanks for all of your information and great industry contacts. It really made the wait more tolerable...

    Scott, once again, amazed at your connections and information. Thank you for all of the help you provide us. Your more informative than GM or my dealer! Really appreciated! Cheers, Graham

    Some good news on the recall.

    Thanks Mr Corvette, just got a further update from my dealer. Car has been released from hold, has been moved back to the yard for shipping to the rail yard. That should take 6 days to get to Lansing. Then a further 18 days to Vancouver. Another day or two to reach Vancouver island. Car is now...
