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.

Agreed
Always impressed by your knowledge of all things Corvette
On holding out for what I want, I figure I shall never be disappointed and regret getting something I later determined I did not have to have, but I would always be disappointed and regret not getting something that I really wanted and for which I should have held out. Words to live and buy by. Yes, I could have had my Z51 Vert by now if I did without factory FAY, and yes I could have picked up an after market carbon fiber dash, but to me there is value in having it factory and on my order record, invoice, and sticker.
Thanks again Laborsmith
