You selected the wrong dealer!you'll be lucky if you get a 2023 if you placed it that time... My deposit was in 2019 and still haven't received...
Mine was a month after. I wouldn't want it to be in late summer anyway since can't drive it for more than a month or so and it's gonna sleep in the garage and depreciate might as well wait for 2021s in May.Placed my deposit with Jeff at WN July 2019. Car delivered August 2020.

Yes, that has been my experience!That why Bill Spenser rocks! Totally transparent and no games, very refreshing to say the least.
I will post an update when I get my allocation and then when I get my C8. We will see.you'll be lucky if you get a 2023 if you placed it that time... My deposit was in 2019 and still haven't received...
Well said and thank you for the information. Winter is here, lockdown has been here for some time... All many of us can do is hope that these measures end soon and we get back to some kind of normalcy soon.Hi Everyone,
Jeff Moore here at Wilson Niblett. Our General Manager Chris Walters is more than happy to share any information you may need about your C8, including deliveries in 2020, the allocation for 2021, and your exact spot on our list. If you're on our list we can tell you your exact spot in a manner of seconds. Chris' cell phone number is 416 997 0420. Don't be shy, give him a call if you wish. Chris shares his personal cell phone with all our clients as a matter of convenience and access for them.
It has been a pleasant surprise that a lot of C8buyers from other dealers have decided to service with us, we are truly honoured to be trusted with your vehicle. We did even have a client come to us with his vehicle from Cobourg so we could get him a high wing spoiler that nobody was willing to source. As many of you remember, the High Wing spoiler was removed from many 2020 orders. We ensured that every customer who wanted a High Wing got one, as we immediately ordered a tonne of them for stock once given the instruction to do so from GM. We still have a few red ones left in stock if anyone is looking. It is this attention to detail, as an example, that has earned us the trust of Corvette enthusiasts like you! We have tried and continue to try and help everyone we possibly can. We are crazy about the car, always have been, and are very organized with everything Corvette as we are acutely aware of the expectations of the amazing Corvette client base.
It doesn't matter which dealer you purchase from, your C8 is always welcome here at Wilson Niblett I assure you. Just last week had a competing dealer bring their C8 here as they did not have the expertise to diagnose the vehicle and we helped them get it back on the road for their customer no questions asked.
We don't know who the number 1 Corvette dealer is and that's not what we focus on anyway. We want to be a great dealer period, for purchase and after sale service. We don't want to deprive anyone of the opportunity to drive this car by trying to hoard orders for our dealership. We want you out on the road having your hair blown back by the vehicle as it was designed and is intended to do as soon as humanly possible!
Managing expectations on the C8 with limited supply and astronomical demand has been a real challenge so we have to be very careful when discussing delivery details. That said we don't have anything to hide so here are some stats for you that we share when people call us.
We delivered 80 Corvettes in 2019. Then in 2020 we delivered 63 C8s. Now its 2021 and we have 27 2021 C8s currently in production and soon to make their way to the dealership!! We have about 119 outstanding Stingray orders, and our Z06 list is growing fast as well. GM has not provided total C8 allocation for 2021 as they are not sure what the year will bring either (let's be honest no one is!), but they have loosely assigned a projected number for the first half of the year which they were very direct in saying was NOT a commitment on their behalf. So the truth actually is, no one knows their total 2021 allocation. We anticipate we will deliver more C8s this year than last. Certainly, we expected to deliver a lot more than 63 C8s in 2020 so our fingers crossed just like yours!! If no supply disruptions the plan is to build as many Corvettes as the plant can handle.
I should also note we keep a 2020 C8 in the showroom so you can see it, touch it, smell it, the whole deal, before you place an order. We do encourage people to come and see the car when they order, it's all part of the experience and the memories!!
Thank you for reading everyone. Please let me know if there is anything we can do to help you with your Corvette, or your incoming order! We haven't had a 30 year plus love affair with this car by being difficult to deal with!! We are here to help and love the car just like you do and are always happy to chat.

I paid my $5k deposit to WN back in July 2020. I was just asked to re-build my car online. Apparently my sales guy Sergio is no longer there and now Aria is taking care of it. Order was initially a late 2020 model and is now supposed to come as an early 2022.. Does this seem right/normal?Hi Everyone,

Not a chance that a July 2020 deposit would make 2020 production.I paid my $5k deposit to WN back in July 2020. I was just asked to re-build my car online. Apparently my sales guy Sergio is no longer there and now Aria is taking care of it. Order was initially a late 2020 model and is now supposed to come as an early 2022.. Does this seem right/normal?
It seems a little late given WN's history. It shouldn't take more than a year these days. However, I have no idea who maintains the list at WN. You can call the GM of WN if you want. Jeff from WN on here seems to be a straight shooter.I paid my $5k deposit to WN back in July 2020. I was just asked to re-build my car online.

Who is your sales rep?Any idea if anyone can check my allocation # at WN? Placed a deposit in oct 2021 but my sales rep will never give me an answer. Says its too early and to check back later this year... not good service.
I believe you're too early for an allocation. From my only experience, my deposit was Sept 2020 - allocation was August 2021. So, I'd say end of summer for your allocation, delivery before Christmas....... but that's how mine went.......if BG ramps up production and parts and chips are available, could be sooner....... but again, my educated guess.Any idea if anyone can check my allocation # at WN?

Hi guys, just noticed that this thread came up again and I forgot to post a follow up on when I received my C8 from Spencers. Deposit placed end of September 2020 and car received at my house in Nova Scotia on May 27, 2021. Loving my Red Mist HTCI will post an update when I get my allocation and then when I get my C8. We will see.
