[QUOTE="gone, post: 282656, member: 5899"] Sorry[USER=7433] Ares[/USER] to hear that you're not trusting your salesperson. That alone is a ++ problem if he's your only real contact for info from your dealership. To try and answer your question, from the other Forum I belong to, here's the last notice posted (from a reliable source: credit to "midengine" and "John") about C8 Stingray constraints as of August 11/22: [U][B]Stingray[/B][/U][B]: Z51, FE2/4 Mag Ride, RCC Engine Cover[/B] So according to that, Z51 did have limited availability almost 2 weeks ago. However that changes depending upon part availability which in turn, is impacted by the number of people who order it. So in other words, it's a fluid thing and not static. I'd suggest you meet with both the sales manager and salesman of your dealership, to discuss what's going on with your order. They should also be able to tell you what your GM order status is (ie. status 3000 or better) and show you that on their system. You need to be comfortable with the dealership so you can rely on the info you're given and make the right decisions.

Hope this helps and good luck getting behind the wheel of a C8 soon and in an ideal world, one with your exact configuration! [/QUOTE]
