thanksOrdering a Corvette 101 Start to delivery
So you want a new Corvette? First thing you need to know is there is a waiting list for the cars at every dealer. Some dealers receive as many as 100 per year or more and some as few as Zero per year. Once a month GM awards allocations to dealers. Large dealers receive several allocations a...canadiancorvetteforums.com
2000 to 3000 goes relatively quickly as soon as 1 day
3000 to 3100 can take as much as 8 to 10 weeks because all the parts have to be in the building before it can advance.
at 3100 some can see a TPW (Tentative or Target Production Week), but at this point that date is very fluid
3100 to 3400 is usually between 6 to 10 days
well almost 17 months still waiting , 12 grand , it is what it is ,out of my hands , thanksYou'll see a fair number of (mostly disgruntled) posts on these Forums about the largest ever Canadian Corvette price increase in history, for the 2024 year. So yes: unfortunately your sales person is correct on that 2024 price increase. Most dealers are refunding deposits for buyers who ordered before having a clue the price increase would be that much (no one expected it; how could they?). Your post suggests you're prepared to live with it; so good for you if you've got that extra disposable income and can still afford the car.
So, it's a 2023?My TPW is 08/28. Hopefully the fellas started building it today but I’m not holding my breath.
I want the car, 2024 is my preferred year for the extra safety tech they added, and of course, that very desirable soft close "frunk".You'll see a fair number of (mostly disgruntled) posts on these Forums about the largest ever Canadian Corvette price increase in history, for the 2024 year.

Hasn't AFM been on the C8s since the beginning?So, it's a 2023?
I want the car, 2024 is my preferred year for the extra safety tech they added, and of course, that very desirable soft close "frunk".
Not enamored with the added "auto stop" engine feature, but disabling it is as simple as pressing a button. Also, the AFM thing is a bit of a useless addition to a car like the C8.
While we all would have preferred a "normal" price increase, like Busguy says, "it's out of my hands", since I/we want the car.
Yes to AFM, but it's still useless. Anyone that has the money to buy a high performance car like a C8 (or any) Corvette, probably isn't too concerned about gas mileage.Hasn't AFM been on the C8s since the beginning?
Another step backwards in the 2024s is changing the way navigation works, where the maps are no longer stored in the car and you must be connected to cellular data for them to be fully functional.

2000 on july 29 and 3000 monday aug 28When did you get your allocation 2000 order placed/accepted by Chevrolet, and accepted by Production Control 3000 status?
I got my allocation on the 18th August 2023 order placed with Chev, and then advanced to 3000 5 days later (over a weekend).
Realistically, if 2023 production has been extended to just prior to the UAW contract expiry, I'd be surprised to see any 2024 orders moving very quickly towards a TPW, but I'm new at this, too.
Then there's the yes/no on a walkout/strike situation, so keep your fingers/everything crossed, and maybe we'll get lucky.
I would drive off a cliff if Google told me that was the shortest route...Yes to AFM, but it's still useless. Anyone that has the money to buy a high performance car like a C8 (or any) Corvette, probably isn't too concerned about gas mileage.
Doesn't affect me. I have the maps stored in my head.
No, 2023 allocation ended in June, and 2024 allocations started in July.So if we get allocation before Sept 12… does that mean we pay 2023 pricing?
Thank you.No, 2023 allocation ended in June, and 2024 allocations started in July.
If your car went 2000 on July 29th, it should have gone 3000 by August 3rd. It would sit at 3000 until August 31st and then change to 3100 status which is order available to sequence. The following Thursday September 7th it would go 3300 status order selected and scheduled for production. Your TPW production week would be the following week being September 11th, which is the final production week for the 2023's making yours one of the last built. This is going to leave very little time to get your car built, through Quality Control and Bayed to be packaged and lined up for shipping before the strike is scheduled to start. Mine took a week to change from 3800 status built, to 4000 status Vehicle available to ship less than two weeks ago. Just keep your fingers crossed your car gets built, through quality control and released to shipping by the 14th of September, as Jack Cooper is not striking and will bring your car as soon as it is released to them.2000 on july 29 and 3000 monday aug 28
That would be great news if it turns out to be correct, but why did GM push the E-Ray launch back almost 6 weeks if they don't think they are being targeted other than the slow roll out they spoke of again at Carlisle.Folks on the other forum are saying UAW will strike against Ford or Stellantis next as they targeted GM 2 years ago. Hopefully we are safe.
