I pinged Spencer to clarify on this point. They confirmed there is no mag ride option available on all 6 of their allocations, z51 or not. They also only have 1/5 allocation that is non z51 (non mag). I decided to pass over my spot for this round.
Yeah I spoke to Sean today and no further allocations this week so you'll either be next week or first week of May.
I was #3 and made it to this allocation, so now I should be #1 for the next round. For mag ride I'll wait late May or June if I have to. As you said it is totally worth it, even more so for daily street driving (read through at least 8 different posts on ME/CF forums, and watched 5 youtube videos lol).
Yup!
So is there a particular day Canadian dealers normally get their allocations? And I assume it's once a month?
Usually the first Thursday of a month or what's known as the first half of the cycle.
My last order , for 2023 C8 , I did not take mag ride because of all the rumors . I have waited too long , already , to see my order, backordered . In videos, on YouTube , they say, if you track/race, you should get it but if not, save your money because the C8 drives great without it.
Unfortunately, I've ridden in my neighbors non Z51 C8 without mag ride and I wasn't a fan. More body roll than I would have wanted and it looks like a monster truck.
Completely agree. I have mag ride, and with the softest setting the C8 rides more comfortably and luxuriously than my Mercedes. Definitely worth the cost!
If you don't know what you're missing then you don't know what you're missing! I don't know what I'm missing.
Lot of discussion on this topic at Spring Mountain 2 weeks ago. Our instructor said the same thing... for everything you get, it's a bargain. He also said the ride in a MSRC car set on "TOUR" is a little softer than any factory setting in a non MSRC car.
