Why not just make convertibles 21's?

I was reading that vert production changed in the Facebook groups earlier today, I didn't know what to believe. I guess its true... wtf?

I wonder if my new Sept 7 TPW was because of this new HTC start date?

 

[Gilles27]

Just start 21 production Sept.1st or those won't be in Canada for early spring delivery also, need to reset and get this thing back on the tracks.

I feel for all of you guys waiting for the HTC. Beyond frustrating I am sure. I think they are just looking at line speed and ramp up delays. If they reduce the complexity of the line side delivery of options they possibly can meet a faster production speeds. Once the second shift gets up and running they will then be able to see what the daily production can be on the coupes. Sorry to hear this news. We are all beyond frustrated with the delays. Not really GM's fault. Strike, then COVID are really not issues that were in there control. The slow ramp us is a necessity given that if anyone at BGA comes to work with COVID, I am sure the plant is shut down again. So they are making prudent choices by the looks of things. Lets see what yesterday production numbers were. Would be nice to see them break 75/day. Like Murray, I am running my own spreadsheet that I update daily to see where my target VIN sits. We all need a hobby these days.

Corvette Blogger (Jeremy Welbourne) is saying the only thing accurate here is July 13th MY2021 order guide. He says the other dates are bogus. I hope its true. Jeremy says those dates are Conti's arrival dates at his dealership for his customers cars only.

Rick posted this is coming from GM's mouth...not delivery dates but retail production date:

 

[Sparro]

^^^ Saw that too. But Corvette Blogger is still calling BS. He says he knows with 100% certainty that the SORP for the vert is still July 20th. Also, August 20th. is a Thursday, and GM usually starts on Monday's. Still hoping Jeremy is right on this.

[Jack Raccoon!]

Glad I'm bald. The threat of skin cancer overrides my desire for a convertible...

 

[Thom]

I'll wear a ball cap when top is down! Awalys have, since I was 20.

 

[EJChevy]

Not much hair on my head any longer and when it's not raining, the top is always off!

If wearing a hat, don't forget sunscreen on your ears.
