I believe it's only 12 months actually. There was a time when we thought it was both hence why Denis is saying that. I could be wrong, but I believe that is what it is. Dealers seem to be exempt from it. If you trade it in before 12 months you're OK, but don't quote me. I'd run it past a dealer first or ask them to ask the area rep.
I picked up this car today, I paid $199,999 plus tax for it. In BC the Tax was just a tick over 73k
.The msrp was 180k so yes I paid 20k over. However considering the Z07 package is next to impossible to get and the base price for a 2024 went up over 20k I think I made out alright. Got a permit and drove it straight home, next spring will do full paint correction and ppf.

From Eagle Ridge Chevrolet in Coquitlam?
Yes from Eagle Ridge, I've only driven it 40kms. My 15 year old son came with me for the delivery, then when we got home my 12 year old daughter was ready for her turn lol. The exhaust note is very unique, I don't know why anyone would mess with it. It will be in hibernation for 7 months but at least I know it's tucked away and can forget about waiting on a allocation.
Yes, I was talking to them several weeks ago. Dealt with the GM there who told me it was selling for MSRP. I did an on-line build and it came to $192K - so, I thought he was not Bsing me? He would give me $100K for my loaded 22 Z51 HTC with not many miles - that was a no go and I did not like the color. Glad you picked it up and are happy with it - enjoy. Can't trust what you are told by these guys. He told me a week ago I could order one with my specs; but, never heard back from him after I sent my build in to him. You must live out that way eh? My car is asleep now until spring. You should have your car out sooner than 7 months?
It was not selling for anywhere close to MSRP, I was told they received 1 allocation and had people lined up to buy it. According to the GM there were a couple of offers at 300K, but when it came time to put pen to paper no one pulled the trigger. The car was not ordered for anyone as previously stated, it was a Dealer stock order that was being sold to the highest bidder. You never know what to believe but one thing for sure is unless you have a personal relationship with the owner or GM, take everything with a grain of salt. As for the color I have seen them all and found that none appealed to me personally. The hypersonic looks to green, cmg has too much blue, silver flare has gold and blue, red imo stands out too much and the blue's aren't my thing. As much as I tried to convince myself to get another color I always get drawn back to black. I'm about an hour away from that dealer, they are hoping to get 1 more allocation for 2024. However they have been told that it will only be a 1LZ or 2LZ. I was just at the right place at the right time for once in my life, the lot attendant told me there was a lot of action on the car after I put down the deposit. People were willing to pay over 225K, I said cool story but let me guess no one showed up with the money. The finance manager said 2 people tried to get financing and were turned down. The weather doesn't really warm up here until May that's when I've always insured my GT500, hence the 7 month time frame.
Black is stunning (My choice too!).
Totally agree, not to mention they would most likely need to put down at least 75K to even be considered.
I may be wrong here but I would think if they are considering buying a $200,000.00 Corvette, they likely know they are qualified. Lemme see now... My Tim Hortons wage considered.... Yes. I can pay this off in 138 years.... Definately qualified...
You might try Vernon, Bannister GM, they do not add $$$ to MRSP. I asked Kelowna for a price and they added $40K to the price of a Z51, so I bought from Bannister in Vernon.
Kelowna enjoys the reputation as a dealership that gouges its customers, especially for any Corvette. They asked for $40 K over MRSP for my beauty and I purchased just 40KM away at Bannister in Vernon for MRSP. Happy Motoring!
