I am at 2000, but had to reply to this! We are doing the Museum delivery as well! Would be awesome to meet some C5/C7 people there at the same time! Hoping for August as well!

This is not to rain on anyones parade, because I am at the same status code and versed in the GM Workbench system.

At 3000 you have not been slotted for a production week, if you were told this by the dealer he was looking at a date they put on orders until they are actually slotted for a production week which would be at status code 3300. In essence you were given a production period (Starting week), again I restate when you attain status 3300 the TPW will be realistic.

My order was at 3300 with a TPW of 7/29 till some time Friday and was pulled back to 3000 as were many orders - why, it's unknown at this time but it appears GM is recalculating sequence of production for the first consensus, hopefully we will know more by mid week.:mad:

laborsmith 06-09-2013 07:49 AM

I have had this happen many times. I think it comes from a late discovered supplier problem (think because I can not prove). It would be interesting to see if all orders are delayed for production or only certain orders, and if only certain orders, what those orders have in common. For example, when the C6 came close to production, orders including optional wheels were delayed for production for several weeks and in that case we knew it was a supplier problem.

3000 Today
 
QZPDBT - No production build week assigned yet

350 HRSS 06-14-2013 12:34 AM

3000 on 6/12!

Frankster80 06-15-2013 11:24 AM

I've been @ 3000 since 6/5.
I'm extremly anxious and it hasn't moved in 2 weeks!

laborsmith 06-15-2013 12:04 PM

Won't move until just before the start of regular production, which still seems to be one of the few secrets Edward Snowden has yet to release.

Laborsmith

CorvetteDan 06-15-2013 12:39 PM

Finally at 3000 on 6/14/13.
 
My dealer told me that our order had moved to 3000 on 6/14/13 and that there would not be a firm production week listed until the order reached 3300.

3300 as of yesterday

purpleRac3r 06-26-2013 08:16 AM

A friend and both have Stingrays ordered, and both went to 3300 Monday. I also received the confirmation call from the NCM on the name for my Museum Delivery dash plaque. Getting close for both of us!

Ciscokid 06-29-2013 06:55 PM

Went by my dealer today, sales manager checked the order and my car has a TPW of 7/1/2013.
If all goes well, could see the Vette in Aug. Cant wait!

Why?

Are you saying the TPW isn't correct? What's the point of assigning a date to TPW if its something else. When I ordered my ZL1 and it got the TPW, it was built during that week.
Why is it different for the Vette?

GQ4Life 06-30-2013 07:58 AM

Everyones TPW that was in July is now changed to August

GQ4Life 06-30-2013 12:59 PM

According to Becky TPW are set at 3300

laborsmith 06-30-2013 01:22 PM

I have had a TPW at 3000 that remained true to build and I have had a TPW at 3300 that did not. Usually when you get a TPW at 3300 it sticks, but as I have seen in the past on other cars and as you are seeing in the present with the Stingray, certainty is not the name of the game.

We know two things: Chevrolet has not announced an official start of production date which occurs several weeks before the start AND no one has gone to 3400, which happens in the week before the vehicle is produced and which must happen so the little stickers with the VIN can be printed and certain parts stamped with the VIN.

There is no one acquainted with the ordering process who will contradict these statements and the changeability is probably one reason I have ordered so many in the past and the frustration of the process is why I often vow to never do a retail sold order again.

A vow I have often broken but this time I am sticking to it, at least until I decide to order again.

tnspd 07-18-2013 02:20 PM

Anyone hear about the carbon fiber dash (FAY) being on back order and anyone who has it on their order will get delayed?

route66 07-18-2013 02:57 PM

Route 66
 
I am finally also 3000 as of 7-18 order # QZTFS8. I started out on waiting list to order in Feb.. About the carbon fiber dash I was told last week by my dealer GM does not have enough to supply all orders and I was told my car was in the group that will get one.

Finally 3300 now the wait for production dates. Thank You Becky for all the checkin.

Thinking 8/5 but still gonna bet 8/12 because might be push back

DocHolliday 07-20-2013 06:58 AM

I'm at 3000 as of 7/18, but I'm not going to get to excited till some of these things are actually being built!

GQ4Life 07-20-2013 08:01 AM

Yep when u see someone goto 3400 time to get excited

laborsmith 07-20-2013 07:32 PM

3400 is what all are looking for and no one has achieved. 3300 usually has a TPW subject to change. I've had a TPW at 3000 and as I posted on one order I had a TPW that did not change though the car was produced over two weeks AFTER. But once there are some reported 3400s, then we will know production will start within a week or ten days.

I think if we look at the status level changes as an indication of progress and not as anything more, we will feel better. I suspect the plant is starting to look more organized and more ready to start regular production each day that passes. I still think production will start on August 5, but will not know if I am right until August 6.

If the Stingray did not have so many unique parts we could be more certain about when it would start being made. But if it did not, would it be a Corvette Stingray and would there be several hundred people laying down deposits for it?

DocHolliday 07-24-2013 07:26 PM

I'm at 3300 now and still no TPW. I'm not sweating it too much, but to see some start rolling off the line would be encouraging. I hope you're right about the Aug 5 start date.

Who is THEY, my dealer says they have not been notified if or when they will receive a PE. My dealer has enough allocation to get one. I do not think the PE will be completly produced before customer orders are started.

So who is THEY.:bonk:
