I never really liked corvette until the 2014.I know this question has been ask before but here it is.I will order a Z 51 L 3. My dealer is a good size Chevy dealer. Fowler in Tulsa,OK.They have4 in stock,not what I want.I would like a 2015 model,and really need the delivery to be after January 2015 not before.Any idea when would be a good time to order?

I'm ordering a '15 also. But mine will be a 2lt....no z51. So I won't have to worry too much about constraints. My dealer tells me 6-8 weeks from the time I place my order (based upon his historical vette ordering timeline).

If you want to ensure not getting your vette until Jan '15 (assuming your dealer will still have allocations available), I'd order around the 1st of Dec.

With the holidays and plant shutdowns, you'll guarantee delivery after 1 Jan.

Problem will be if all your local dealers allocations have been filled....then you'll have to go somewhere else. There are some very large Corvette dealers nationwide who can get what you want in a relatively short period of time. If you're familiar with another Corvette forum website....that's where you'll find them. If not, shoot me a message, I'll let you know.

Your dealer should be able to help you with this to insure you get the right car at the right time.
