Post where you’re from and if you’ll be riding a 2020 C8. I’m in Moncton NB have allocation for a C8 Coupe. Building in April. 
Atlantic Canadians C8 Allocation Where r u from ?
- Thread starter NOSOUPFORU
- Start date
I have a customer from NB with an order in place. He's still on the waiting list.
Holy carp! I’m surprised there even a dealer in CB that got allotments.
Economically depressed region and all that jazz. NS if bad enough off, but CB is even worse. Not your guy’s fault, you’re just caught in the Atlantic Canada economic “death spiral” like the rest of us....
That’s were I am too
Lots of people with cash if you're number 34 on the deposit list.
I was talking to Grant at Lounsburys on Monday Jan.6. He said that they have 13 allocations for the first half and so far have received
7 in the Sept to Dec 2019 period. They are expecting to receive another 13 allocations in the second half for a total of 26 for 2020. I am number 20 on their list so he thought I would be getting a 2020 in the second half. He also said he thought the 2020 model year might run beyond Sept 2020.
I noticed that CCF forum member EJChevy who works for Bill Spencer Chev in Cobourg, Ont. has stated that his dealership also has 13
first half allocations and have received 7 so far. They seem to be following the same pattern as Lounsburys in Moncton.
For the information of those that are ordering their first Corvette in New Brunswick, when I ordered my C7 in 2015 it took exactly 2 months
from the time my order was entered in the system until my car arrived at the dealer. There was no quality control hold in place at that time. The first C8's built will be held in the lot at the Bowling Green plant for QC. If I remember correctly the lot held around 1500 cars back in the C7 days. The QC hold will probably not exceed 4 weeks and maybe as short as 2 weeks from reports I have seen on the web.

reading that, math tells me it's 36 allotments, not 26.
7 (sep to dec 19) + 13 (first half) + 13 (second half) = 36 allotments.
I suppose if you only look at 13+13 it's 26 for 2020, but I woudl include the early order allotment as it's all part of 2020.
The point is: 36 allotments for a Canada dealer on a hot item like the C8 is pretty good!
The first 7 orders came from the 13 allotments for the first half of the model year.
It's 26 total, with 7 already ordered.
