0% and rebate in Canada

[Cruzin]

Unfortunately, dealers here in Ontario don't discount Vettes that much. The price listed at Northgate in Edmonton certainly saves one a lot of cash on a 2017. Unfortunately in 3 months time it would be considered a year old, and would depreciate how much? Plus the fact to save money one would have to sacrifice what they actually would want if ordered. Save or sacrifice that is the question!

Oh don't sacrifice. That's never in my intention. Been there done it - won't do it again.
The discount hunt is for those who can find/accept what they want on a lot.
In 2016 I found 5 at different dealerships within 300 miles of each other. I was good to do all that work and travel.
For those who are particular to an exact specification, a compromise can lead to remorse - don't do that.
In 2017, there was no other option than to wait and see if a reduced price would even happen as
it was the only SBM remaining in Western Canada ... so we had to be good to let it go
and than start again in 2018 with a modified spec (color) ... we were blessed with it coming through.
My hope is that Alberta Dealers can get back to the way Ontario Dealers are as it means for an all-round good economy for everyone here
(unless one is in the market to buy a Corvette in Alberta - as the time is right now).

Yes Spence compromises lead to the regrets later. Being patient and devoted to your specific specs on your expensive dream car is not easy though as sales people are looking to shift your "must haves" to what is in front of you on their lot... leaving you seeing your actual dream car "sorry no longer available anywhere" for sale at some point later while you are now driving something else off his/her lot. ouch!
Thus your earlier mention of having a relationship established with the sales person is a good way to a avoid that. I fully admit I've been "sold" in the past by not being mentally prepared before going in. Not on a Corvette but the process is the same.
I do notice the prices seem to remain higher in Ontario as well. Makes some sense and there are so many more people near the centre of the universe.
