Was just about to order a 2026 Stingray, but how fast can I get a 2027?

[Mr.Corvette]

New to the forum so forgive me, but who's Mr.Corvette and why would I be asking him?

Your new so I forgive you for not knowing me. Welcome to the forum by the way! Yesterday was the last day to submit an order for a 2026.
Dealers can make changes until next Tuesday. Part of the issue is where you live slows down your delivery by one month. If it's speed your after ordering a car out of Ontario and shipping is the fastest option and our dealers get more allocations for early ordering than dealers in Saskatchewan.
Perhaps you should send me a DM by clicking on the picture of my car and I can help you.

Good advice Scott. Out of curiosity are any of the Alberta dealers high enough volume to get early 2027 allocations? I'm not in the market but our new friend in Regina might have a shorter drive home from Calgary or Edmonton. Just a thought............

I believe Northgate in Edmonton is around # 8 or 9 in Canada. You can see all Corvette dealers sales numbers on C8tracker.com .

Hi Bob, yes your thought process is right as there are bigger dealers in Calgary and Edmonton than in Regina who will obtain quicker allocations.
What people from the west complain to me about is the extra month it takes to ship cars by rail to those cities.
I had my car overnighted after being released from Quality Control Bayed status. That's not typical but cars coming to our big dealers in the GTA can be here in two days. GM prefers that dealers sell to people in their geographic region as well. My sister lives in Calgary and I once asked a dealer there
about their waiting list and they didn't want to add me onto it due to being from Ontario. I was already on 5 lists in Ontario and thought I would ask
anyway. Now that the rush for Corvettes is over, dealers are probably more willing to sell out of region.
The original question from Yamariv is how fast do they ship out the new models? The answer is the fastest way to get a 2027 Stingray instead of a 2026 is to order one from one of our sponsoring dealers and ship it out west from here.
