I do agree that where the dealer's allocation comes up and there is also a retail sold order in hand Chevy should be able to figure out a way to make that work. If the desired constraaint was 0 nationwide, no, but if the constraint is limited, there should be a way to match the order and the allocation. The ordering process, as I understand it, with its multiple passes before an order goes past 2000 seems amenable to the process

If it helps, I on other cars ordered have gone through the order can not proceed due to constraints purgatory. At times I would question the wisdom of holding out for what I wanted, but in the end I have never been disappointed that I waited.

If the % of retail sold C7 orders was similar to Malibu or Cruze retail sold orders, I suspect you would have your order in your garage by now but for some reason Corvette in general and this version in particular seems to have attracted a very high number of retail sold customers. I blame the internet. If it wasn't for the internet, many fewer people would be tempted to attempt to order.
