I put down a deposit 2-3 years back and was lucky to get the call it would be built. I’m picking it up Tuesday, will post more pics

we don't have enough historical data but I think that for 2024 production year the top 2 dealers in Canada can expect 12 Z06s, 12 E-Rays and 76 StingraysIn conclusion I pose a question to those more worldly in these matters;
With all the above nonsense taken into account, how many of the E-Ray and Z06 cars will one of the top dealers put out yearly?
Each, as in a top dealer will see 100 Corvettes a year?we don't have enough historical data but I think that for 2024 production year the top 2 dealers in Canada can expect 12 Z06s, 12 E-Rays and 76 Stingrays
top 2 Canadian dealers are Brian Cullens and Wilson Niblett and they are within 1 allocation per year of each otherEach, as in a top dealer will see 100 Corvettes a year?
I know it's all guesswork, but it's a start.
Well, I doubt Canada will get 900 Z06’s this year… I don’t mean to be negativeFun with numbers, anyone?
This chart is designed to show the yearly allocation of vehicles based on Dealer ranking.
There is very little (if any) real data here.
Tell me where you think I am high, low, or simply 'off my rocker'.
I look forward to your criticism (If I get enough of it, I will adjust and resubmit).
The premises used are as follows:
If this 'chart' were accurate (which of course it is not), one would be able to determine where your deposits are best placed.
- There are 450 GM Dealers, and each Dealer will get at least 1 Corvette.
- Canada receives 3700 Corvettes, broken down into 50% Stingray, 25% E-Ray, and 25% Z06.
- The 'Top 3' Dealers receive 90 Corvettes each.
- The next 7 Dealers receive 40 Corvettes each.
- The next 90 Dealers receive 20 Corvettes each, and so on.
That is, being #44 on a list with the top 3 should actually be better than being #3 with a very low volume Dealer.
Just go C8tracker.com for real numbers per dealer for 2023 that will show you for example that only 249 Canadian dealers have received 2023 corvettesFun with numbers, anyone?

Canada got around 2000 2023 C8s so far, and will get around 500 more once everything is said and done. Total Canadian allocation number is irrelevant to you as you are on the list at particular dealers not Canada, and chances are their wait list are longer than average.I think I am getting closer.
Then, I may actually get the car I want, when I want it.
- If the percentages of allocations amongst dealers remains as per 2023, and
- If the Canadian market gets 3500 Corvettes in total, and
- If of those 3500, 70% go to Stingrays, 15% to Z06, and 15% to E-Rays,
That said, If the dog hadn't stopped to take a crap in the woods, he probably would have caught the rabbit.
Don't forget that the CDN Z06 numbers are not very accurate.Canada got around 2000 2023 C8s so far, and will get around 500 more once everything is said and done.

Ruby, your new to this and you like numbers so let me bounce some off of you. First I think Denis is pretty bang on with his estimate-"top 2 dealers in Canada can expect 12 Z06s, 12 E-Rays and 76 Stingrays".Each, as in a top dealer will see 100 Corvettes a year?
I know it's all guesswork, but it's a start.
Yes, I am very new to all of this.Don't forget that the CDN Z06 numbers are not very accurate.
I as well knew nothing about Corvettes until owning the C8 and joining this forum. I have both learned a lot and been thoroughly entertained!!!Yes, I am very new to all of this.
I find the entire purchasing process, and Corvette 'culture' (is that fair?) intriguing, to say the least.
The knowledge shown by some of the membership is quite admirable.
I am also greatly appreciative of the willingness to share.
I will plod along on my quest for ownership, hopefully not embarrassing myself too much as I go.
I am in the same boat, lots of knowledge and true owner experience to leverage from hereI as well knew nothing about Corvettes until owning the C8 and joining this forum. I have both learned a lot and been thoroughly entertained!!!
Cullens got their 6th Z06 allocation this monthAnd none with a Z06 allocation. Seems to be Nationally constrained this month...
