When can you order a 2017 ZL1?

I've been contacting my local dealers and not one of them can tell me when or how to order a new ZL1. Does anyone have more information?

They must be idiots...you can order the standard right now, but the auto 10 speed has to wait around till Jan or so.

Maybe they don't have allocations but kinda shocked you are getting bs responses.

people already have orders in. The dealer has to have an "allocation", which are fairly minimal at this time as it is a new release. Maybe try a large volume dealer, go in and ask them if they have an allocation for a ZL1.

If you search this forum you will find tons of infio.

Sucks, I never had a sports car but wanted something different. Z06 will not fit my family. I'll try a larger dealer but looks like I might be currently out of luck.

I am a Camaro guy, and plan on getting an 18' ZL1 in about a year, but if you are looking for a sports car with family space, the 6th Gen Camaro is the wrong car for you.
The Hellcat Challenger will be a better choice as it has a backseat that can fit someone my size, with me in the front.
I'm 6'1" and 210 lbs btw.

Hit up BeckyD@Rodgerschevrolet here on the forums, I might have to cancel here and order through her if my order doesn't have movement soon.

Ya, even though I have a deposit down with my dealer (he doesn't have Phase 1 yet) and I've been calling around only to find silly ADMs or no allocations yet.

It's not to be a family car. I just want to be able to bring my kid with us. And I'm not a fan of mopar. Looks nice but not my thing.

yes, he is serious because the traction of the tires they are equipped with is severely degraded in temperatures under 40 degrees.

They did the same with the last ZL1 if I recall.

but then I don't think it was true for the entire generation...so IDK.
