Got a call from my dealer and I submitted my order, wanted the high wing carbon flash but they weren't able to get it, instead they put body color high wing and now it's at 3000 and they can't change it.

Obviously don't want to pay for something I never asked for... what do I do here?

Not much you can do. You can always sell your wing and buy the one you want at a decent price though a place like buykippscottgmparts.ca

Is Chevy that rigid? It's not like they're going to install the part at the factory?

Yes, they are. They are selling the car to the dealer and not you. The dealer promises to sell it to you.
The dealer can not change an order once it's been accepted. If they want the allocation it has to be with what's available at that time. Otherwise they lose their allocation.
So, you can refuse delivery and wait another year or 2 and they can then sell it for over MSRP.

Might as well just take the red one and get it painted after the fact... would be cheaper I feel like than flipping the high wing.

Hey you may even like it the way it comes. At least you have choices AND got a car!

Mandatory 3k ceramic coating... a bit sketch lol. I asked if I could shop around for the coating and they said no.

You'd better tell them it needs to have PPF first! 3K is steep for ceramic. Almost twice of what it should be.

I got thew whole car, including the wheels, for $1600. AND it was 9H! 9H is the best ceramic which can last 12 years if I recall correctly.

your order went in July 2023. Do not make any changes and accept the car as it was spec’s. You waited 2 years and 4 months, don’t risk it

Amit916 and I are friends we have been talking back and forth the last two days after his allocation came up the excitement is real for both of us even though I'm still waiting. I agree with everyone just take it how it is since the wait has been so long.
