[QUOTE="DavidWG, post: 256524, member: 3145"] I have been in touch with Cullen, Spencer and W-N this past week and all are reporting that their orders are now about equal to their allocation of 2021s and none were particularly optimistic about me getting a 2022. I then went to Tom Beard at Humberview on the Queensway in Toronto where I purchased all three of my C7s. They are a mid tier Corvette dealer selling somewhere between 50 & 80 last year. Their ratio of orders with deposits compared to 2021 C8 sales looks promising and Tom was pretty confident that I could get a 2022 before the end of next summer so I placed my order for a well optioned red mist C8 and traded in my 2019 Grand Sport (20,000 km) which they now have. I think many of us have avoided the local dealers who generally have allocations of 10 or under in favour of the known big guys like W-N, Cullen and Spencer. They are all really good dealers but too many of us are focused on the big three or four dealers. At this point most of them appear to have their order books filled or even overflowing. People may be better off looking to the dealers who are lower profile yet still get more than 50 Corvettes a year. Everyone is selling at full MSRP so we need to shop for availability rather than price these days. By the way Humberview has a very pretty USED white (red guts) 2021 C8 HTC with only 4000 km. on their showroom floor. Lots of options. They are asking well over MSRP so one could still have 6-7 weeks of fall fun with this beauty. [/QUOTE]
