I have been waiting since April to (3/24 actually) to get called by a local dealer to place an order. I want Z51 LT1 CRM, black wheels, performance exhaust and a 7 speed man. Since it is already mid June I am probably have to go for 2015. According to the article you graciously linked us to: " (NPP) Performance exhaust is now included with the Z51 Performance Package "
Is this the only Z51 change does anyone know? What will the cost of Z51 be?

Entering orders for a 2014 C7 ended 05/22/2014 and the last consensus cycle started 06/12/2014/ Entering 2015 orders started 05/29/2014 and the first 2015 C7 consensus cycle begins 06/26/2014/ 2015 C7 starts regular production on 08/11/2014.

Making the performance exhaust standard for the Z51 is one change. I am thinking there is another but can not recall.

We are about a month from release of pricing. There is no specific date just a general way this happens.

Doesn't look like I missed anything by not waiting for 2015.

Love that the pic on the article looks almost like Sugar, my c7!

As I said my dealer has held a deposit to hold my place since late March a letter of inquiry got me this reply. I think it sounds reasonable and if I end up waiting until December to get the exact car I want so be it.
Paul : I fully understand your concerns with Bowling Green’s production schedule to build Corvettes . Justin told me he has your deposit since March 2014 , and I have 8 deposits since August 2013 . All of these and yours are on hold only because of the Z51 PKG requirement . Others who ordered non Z51 have received their vehicles. I’ve heard that GM was overwhelmed with over 20,000 orders and built 8000 . If that’s true that means 12000 and you will be called to see if they all want to be carried over to the 2015 model . Ordering for 2014s actually ended today and not in May . We did call everyone on our lists and by the time we got to your name the 14 allocation was used up in its entirety. I’m being told that orders for 15s will commence in late July and we expect our customers to be riding their new Stingrays in late Nov or early Dec. Just for the record Cyber gray is no longer available, and the rumors on Corvette forums about dual mode exhaust being standard has in no way been confirmed by GM. Should you have further questions feel free to call my office Fleet manager and over 2000 personal Corvette sales since 1964.
