Great news Joey...hopefully you will be able to get enough seat time before winter comes to tie you over till next spring.

 

[JoeyBats]

Awesome news Joey! You will love the HTC. Once you have it, the wait will be worth it!

Thanks Sparro. It is status 4B00 bayed ready to ship. Wish I could track it on JCT. How many more days to wait?

I have a non Z51 with the allseasons, hoping for mid November here in Ontario. I know it would be totally different on the Rock.

 

[OL Yeller]

Mid November...I could only wish...put mine to bed Nov 2 last year, not much seat time in the couple weeks leading up to it.

I`ll keep spinning the wheel till it says yes.
Got my eyes on the HRE ff11 wheels in liquid metal and working out something with MRR. My factory wheels may be up for sale.

I'm interested Larry if they are Carbon Flash?

 

[larryd]

I dont really know. You may have to go to their site. I`m interested in the liquid metal only.

My stock wheels and regular silvery

I've been monitoring ebay etc ( out of curiosity) to see when the first HTC hits the secondary market. Haven't seen one yet. The price tag is hard to predict. But, I'm thinking a legitimate ask for a well equipped 3lt could be 140ish...

A guy posted his Sebring Orange 2LT vert a week ago for $129k. Its no longer up for sale so I assume sold...

Congrats Larry. We were beginning to worry about your mental health status...

I'll have to consider an offering for the next Corvette I buy, given that result. Quite the AMAZING back yard you have!

It's starting to look like a 6 week wait, from the day my HTC was built, to when it'll be delivered to my dealer in Calgary. It might be less for you in Ontario since you're far closer to Bowling Green but I've known others in Ontario who've had similar waits. I was originally told 4 weeks by my dealer but it's definitely going to be longer than that. It's now on a train to Western Canada, then it'll be loaded onto a truck and delivered to my dealer. I'm told by GM Concierge that the dealer will be able to keep tabs on its progress, however my dealer says there's no way to do that and the car will basically just show up at their doorstep unannounced. I mention this knowing yours will soon be made...so when that happens, it'll be time to take another "patience pill" and wait for delivery but at least you'll know the car exists and you can get a VIN. Congrats!

 

[larryd]

I have more bottles of ceramic coating and firecrackers if need be.

 

[CamsC8]

I'm loving the look of a Convertible high wing:

BTW, my mental heath is fine as I get my evening fix of watching Youtube vids about the C8 and being on this forum .

 

[Sparky]

Congrats!

Is your status 4B00 (Bayed) or the more advanced 4800 (rail ramp unload)? If 4800 you may get your b'day present today! Either way, lucky you! You're one of the few Canadians who will be getting a C8.

And Happy B'day! 39 again?
