I heard a new Vette was in the building GM set up at the Dream cruise at the old Woodward intersection, I saw people with GM bags and a nice black tube walking around, they must have given out posters, last year the first camaro was in the same spot. Too much traffic Saturday, I didn’t stop.

Here’s How 2020 Corvette C8 Shoppers Are Strategizing to Avoid Dealer Markups

Prospective buyers of the new, highly anticipated 2020 Chevy Corvette C8 are worried that dealerships might mark up the price significantly over the manufacturer suggested retail price (MSRP).

Corvette fans on CorvetteForum.com have compiled a list of dealerships that have already committed to sell the new C8 at MSRP without markups.

Started by user tcinla, the list includes 56 high-volume Corvette dealerships across the country that are ranked by the number of C7 Corvettes they have sold to date. Dealerships marked "YES" have promised to sell their allocation of C8 Corvettes at MSRP, while dealerships marked "NO" or "?" have not made this commitment and may be prone to markups. The list also includes a number of lower-volume Corvette dealerships, some of which have committed to selling the C8 at MSRP and some of which have not.

When will my mid-engine Corvette actually arrive?

September 5: Chevy dealers informed of their Corvette allocations.

September 12: “Run, Pass” constraints defined by the factory (what trim levels and equipment are available for ordering). GM begins accepting orders of cars for the first two weeks of production with 2LT or 3LT trim and Arctic White, Black, Torch Red, Shadow Gray, Sebring Orange, or Ceramic Matrix Gray paint.

Week of September 23: Final C7 will be manufactured at Bowling Green, Kentucky, assembly plant.

October: Orders accepted for C8s painted Elkhart Lake Blue and Long Beach Red. Production allocated for weeks 3-5.

November: Orders accepted for Corvettes with 1LT trim for weeks 6-9 of production; Blade Silver, Zeus Bronze, and Accelerate Yellow added to available color palette.

December 2: C8 manufacturing will commence. All 12 exterior colors will be available for ordering. Some LPO (limited production option) equipment will be shipped directly to dealers for installation.

January 6, 2020: Manufacturing resumes following GM’s two-week holiday break.

Mid-January: Early production 2020 Corvettes held in impound for retrofit of updated parts begin leaving Bowling Green, Kentucky, for shipment to dealers.

February-March: 2020 model year price adjustments are likely.

September: End of 2020 model year.

There you have it. By the looks of it, even the earliest orders won’t be delivered until February.

Leaked mid-engine C8 Corvette specs hint at big performance gains

e’ve seen a few basic specs for the mid-engine Corvette, but we may now have even deeper insight courtesy of a user on CorvetteForum. The recent posting shows a few pictures of an alleged spec booklet for the new sports car; some of the information matches what General Motors has already made public, but there is plenty else to unpack. Assuming this leak is accurate, gear ratios, weights, and more are now out there in the open.
