A GS allocation for Canada is interesting considering the website says late 2026 availability while the US site says summer. I took that to mean Canada might not get the cars until September at the earliest while the US will get them starting in July.

So some quick math based on how GM Canada prices the Stingray compared to the US puts the Grand Sport at 115k starting including luxury tax, freight etc. The GSX is only $1100 more than the E-Ray in the US so I'd expect it to also be similar in Canada. Maybe 163k starting. The Stingray will...

Chevrolet.ca site says Grand Sport anticipated availability late 2026 and Chevrolet.com site says available Summer 2026.

The number is 580hp, anything under should be fine. I have to find a new provider every few years for my C7 Z06 because of this. Every year insurance companies change their underwriting and may decide not to insure cars specifically with 580+ hp and a gas engine. My current company 3 years ago...

You don't need to sell 80-90 corvettes over two years to get a Z06 these days. Dealers who sell 6-8 corvettes a year currently have a Z06 in inventory you can buy right now. Its very easy to order a new Z06, even from a small dealer. Yes they have to wait for an allocation but if the dealer is...

I'm owed two. My '21 Rapid Blue came within 8 months. I'm going on a year now for my '23 Z06 and my '24 Stingray is 5 months old.

I don't like the new one. It literally looks like the High Wing Spoiler but they chopped off 90% of the stanchions. It should be called Low wing Spoiler. Maybe GM is cost cutting so they can just reuse the same spoiler design and just put short stanchions or tall stanchions on the car. Or they...

The Z06 sounds buzzy at lower rpm. If you leave it in auto mode and aren't aggressive it will not sound good even if the exhaust is in track mode. Its not a good sound until you hit 3500-3750rpm. Many people never set their My Mode's and just leave the car in Tour. However the Stingrays with...

The wheels aren't even lined up with the fenders in this picture, is it AI or a render? I don't mind Callaways wide body kit but this looks awful, maybe it would look a bit better if they offset the wheels.

Im throwing snows on mine, its only a Stingray!

Grand Sport has always been the model to help sales after the Z06/base models come out. For people who don't want a Z06/ZR1 but still want to buy something more then a Stingray/base model. Its a volume seller. It seems odd to only offer it for one model year, especially at the end of the run...

I'm assuming that $9200 doesn't include luxury tax? A Z06 now starts at 171k and an E-Ray 160k after luxury tax? So we now have a 70-80k chasm between a Stingray and the next model. GM really needs a model in between a Stingray and an E-Ray/Z06.

I drove a 992 GTS manual and loved it, unfortunately I couldn't stomach trading both my V8s in on the car. While the 911 doesn't have the exhaust sound it has some pretty nice induction noise which helps. My problem with 911s now is that they are getting so expensive, much more so then...

I must be god damn blind because when I look at the website all it says is $1000 deposit and the usual crap.

I've thought about Callaway for my Stingray but saw they didn't have it approved yet for Canada. Anyone know the pricing for Callaway to do the work? I know they've started US builds but I haven't found anyone who has had the work done saying what it cost. I know I could call Callaway but...
