Making order advice

[Vets1stvet]

I’m going in tomorrow to place my order for my C8. I realize it will likely be for a 2021 but I was wondering if anyone had advice when working with the dealership and the salesperson. Are there any questions I should be asking or information they should be giving me. I’ve bought many cars but never a Corvette.

just make sure ur deposit is 100 % refundable if something occurs

I am also in the same boat. I am thinking Rapid Blue or Sebring Orange. But if I don't get an allocation for a 2020 I will be buying a used one in a few years.

I would agree that the biggest issue is that your deposit is refundable until GM accepts your order with an assigned production date.

Definitely find out what their allocation is and what number in line you will be. Otherwise you will be wasting your time.

Arctic white with dual carbon flash racing stripes, red seats, z51 and I’m debating the high wing spoiler.

They said they are getting 2 this year and they have 5 orders. I’ve also heard that people at other dealers are getting their order picked up and they are further down on the list. Just depends on options and such that you order. It doesn’t necessarily go in order.

I just learned in Quebec the dealer has to refund a deposit if you want it back until you sign an official contract of purchase.

The only constraint currently is the Convertible. You will be looking at a 2021 MY.

Do your GM build sheet at home. Think it over for a day and then do it again. Then take another day and do it again. Then when you are sure you have what you want take it the dealership and make more changes. Thats what I did. LOL.

Yup...I look at mine and change it about 5 times per day

My options have always been the same it is just the color that has me tossing and turning at night but after seeing that dark grey paint job at Cullen beside the red and the orange on my mind is made up on the dark grey.Plus its the same color as my HD Roadking .

i was torn between red and orange but since red is the top colour choice I went with orange. I have a Harley Ultra Limited but it wont match. Although there is a wee bit of orange in the striping. Close enough. LOL.
