What's the story with new Corvettes? Can they be ordered at this time?

What does the waitlist look like for Z06s?

If you don’t want to pay over MSRP, get on the list with McMulkiin or Ciocca. Wait list is a year out. That’s what I did. If you are willing to pay at least 25k over MSRP, you may be able to find a dealer with an allocation to get the car sooner. Don’t waste your time on s Z06 , the wait list is 3-4 years out.

New Z06 is going to be a monster but i think you will be a while out on one or pay a huge mark up.

Maybe it's just me but the standard c8 doesn't do it for me. I would much rather have a c7 z06. Auto will be faster but for some reason i see the manuals holding value better going forward.

Z06 is .3 faster on the 0-60. So that’s not really convincing me to buy one.

I like the standard C8. I feel like they just need the right packages, color, tint, and potentially some wheels.

I’ve put in an order at two dealerships for a CT5-V Blackwing. One I placed in January and still no allocation. Apparently, the major hold up is the carbon fiber packages. So I dropped the carbon fiber this week because we went with black. Carbon fiber won’t pop much on a black car anyway. I also put in the same order with a dealer out of Illinois. Hopefully one of them can pull through.

Z06 doesn't do it for me either. I'm happy with the C8. Car has plenty of power. More of a guy there is no substitute for cubic inches. Plus it's 50k more for the Z. Have a friend that just got a used Ferrari Moderna. He has to put race gas in it at $12 per gallon versus 92 octane in the C8. Makes me even more happy with my new C8.

Please don’t talk about how happy you are with your new C8 without posting pictures. It’s just not right 😂
