It will change when your order gets picked up to be built

You've learned well Drake :lol:

Hi Becky,

Otherwise, there's lot's of orders created, but
nobody going anywhere just yet. :popcorn:

Wealth of knowledge as usual Beck...thanks!

QZQQ23

This may be a dumb question, but since I don't know the answer, I will ask it anyway. Are the order numbers generated at random, or is there any sequence to them that may or may not show the sequence that GM will be accepting them? I notice some are all letters, some with one number and did see one I believe with 2 numbers. Does this question make sense?
thanks
Don

Order Number
 

Hello Becky. :wave:

Here is my order Number. RBSDWP
If you please can check it 4 me ;) (the order was placed today, so not sure if it would show up something... How long does it take to the system to start showing some info?)

San Antonio, Texas

Thanks 4 your time.

1100 status ;)

1100 status ;) Not much to talk about yet :pop2:

I'm with you - this car is beautiful ;)





















almost as nice as a VR 1LE :biggrin:

1100 status :biggrin:

1100 status :biggrin:

So far you are running neck-n-neck :sm0:

Thanks - but I'm fine ;)

1100 status :headbang:

The orders #'s would be sequential as they are assigned to
an order, but it has nothing to do with the sequence that GM
will accept them. Once the allocation is available, the dealer
can create and order and place it in the same day that will
make it "newer" than others that were created weeks ago -

Hope that helps.

They show up immediately- just like yours did. They
won't change status until the dealer places it against
their allocation and there's no telling how long that may
take.

Glad to hear that. :cool:
Just trying to give some folks info they might not have been aware of.

What is expected lead time once factory accepts/acknowledges order?

Oh, OK I see. Thank you very much, Becky :nod:

So if I want to track my order at the Chevy Website, first my dealer needs to place it against their allocation in order to complete the process?

And my order status right now is?..:rolleyes:

Thanks 4 ur time! :first:

Typically once the order gets to 2000 status the timing
is about 4-6 weeks. However, the start up for this car
will be slow with a QC hold time. So hard to say for the
first round how long it will take.

No you can find your order on that site now. I believe it will say
that it's waiting for dealer allocation. The actual status is
1100- Order placed at dealership. There it will sit until the
allocation becomes available for the dealer to place the order.

OK, I see.
Thanks a lot Becky! :biggrin:

So having an Order number is no guarantee that my car will be on production any time soon, or even on a First run of orders or a Second run right?:dizzy:

You are correct.

Am not sure what you mean by in production anytime soon. The announced date for the start of regular production is the first Monday in August, so if you mean by anytime soon sometime in August, then there to you are correct.

Laborsmith

Seems like August build orders should be pulled today. Maybe there will be some 2500s tomorrow,

Perfect, Thanks for the info Laborsmith.

Ok then, now big questions..... :help:

If these next days my order moves on the 2500 ... Would that mean that my car would be on regular production (fall delivery) ? But what if June and July pass by and my order does not move from the 1100? Does it mean that my dealer put me on a second run (january delivery)? :iono:

Thanks for your time!

Per experience, the first Corvette consensus (which should be at the end of May, about now) would be for projected August production. The second Corvette consensus will probably be closer to the start of regular production: my guess toward the end of July. Those orders picked in the first consensus will get their build date and eta dealer delivery date near the end of June. Corvette is better at these predictions than the rest of Chevrolet, one reason is that Corvettes ship by truck car hauler and not by train. Chevy picks retail sold orders before dealer stock orders and rumor has it will follow up to determine a retail sold is not a dealer stock order.

Laborsmith

This is great info, thank you for posting it. I had no idea it would be August before they started production.

I was told that all Priority #1 orders from all dealers would be first for production, regardless if a dealer gets 2 allocations or 50, and the rest of the orders would be allocated over the next 6-9 months. Becky, does that sound right to you?

Also, when will these orders start getting pulled? I know someone mentioned this week? Is that true, or will it be closer to next week, since it's the actual end of May.

This is exciting :first:

How do you know when your order gets pulled?

any 2500's yet??

Your dealer can check it in GM Global Connect daily and check on the Event Code Status.

Welcome to the true E Ride people who do retail sold orders, particularly pre-orders, which is what this thread is currently focusing on. Retail ordering can be a true roller coaster ride.

I am not sure when the last consensus in May takes place, I am guessing yesterday but it could be next Tuesday. For those who need refreshing: Consensus – The planning and forecasting of vehicles between the dealer and GM. A quantity of vehicles that a dealer requests for a given production period from GM. Based on GM data and constraints they may or may not receive the amount requested.

There are non sellable Corvettes being built now, and possibly Captured Test Fleet as well, which exist to get as many real world miles as possible as one of the final checks before the start of regular production cars.

Anything Becky does your dealer can do but it is a lot more fun (for everyone) watching Becky do her magic so I hope people take advantage. Also, all retail sold orders are priority 1 though at consensus a dealer may put a not first order through if there is a constraint on the would be first order. The dealer really has no choice because if an allocation is not used it can not be saved and it will be given to another dealer. How else to Kerbeck and a few others come to dominate Corvette sales?
