[QUOTE="gone, post: 280047, member: 5899"] Last week I did the unthinkable (for a C8 fan) and test drove a "slightly" used Porsche 911 Turbo S (less than 11,000 km) with almost all the options, after learning that GM had choked off the C8 allocations coming to Canada. I thought it out of my price range compared to the expected Z06 cost...but now with the release of the Z06 pricing, I realize it's in that same range plus it's a tested design that comes with a 2 year manufacturer warranty. Now we're told that compared to Q1 2022, the C8 allocations coming to Canada were further reduced by 49% in Q2 2022 whereas in the States, their Q2 allocations increased by almost 8% (credit to GMAuthority): [URL unfurl="true"]https://gmauthority.com/blog/2022/07/chevrolet-corvette-sales-numbers-figures-results-second-quarter-2022-q2/[/URL] To put this into perspective, realize that the 2022 Canadian allocations dropped by almost 50%, compared to 2021. So this drop keeps happening and I expect that to continue, as GM focuses on new countries/markets and keeps taking Canadian allocations to feed them. How long does it take for repeated 50% Canadian allocation decreases to result in [B][U]zero[/U][/B] C8's being sold to Canada? :angry-argh: [/QUOTE]
