Well after 11 months of ordering the 2008 model year Corvette, today we embark on the final cycle for the year.  Today Chevrolet dealers across the country received their final allocation figures for the 2008 model year, which we will order over the next 4 weeks.  All sold orders for customers must be in this week by April 25th, while dealers will still have 3 weeks to order for stock.

The production period for vehicles ordered during this cycle is May 19th - June 20th.  On June 20th, all production will cease at the factory, there will be a 3 day window where no builds will take place as they prepare for the 2009 model year production to begin on June 23rd.

With lackluster sales figures overall, the 2009 Corvette and ZR1 are highly anticipated vehicles.  Perhaps the change in colors and updated various options will drive sales higher come summer. 

If you are still in the market for a 2008 Corvette, we have allocation available which we can deliver nationally to you or to the Museum.  If you are looking for first dibs on a 2009 Corvette, we are accepting deposits now.  Simply leave a comment (which will be kept private), or give us a call direct at (888) 875-0728.

This week there is no dealer ordering cycle due to enhancements to GM's ordering website, GMDealerWorld.

Ordering will once again resume for 2008 Corvettes on Thursday, April 24th, when we will have an updated list of constraints.  When we do return, customers looking to order a 2008 Corvette would likely continue to have the following constraints:

• QX3  Chrome Wheels
• 67U  Machine Silver
• Z4Z  Indy Pace Cars

Posted By Ryan In 2008 Corvette Ordering , Buying a Corvette , Corvette News , Corvette Production | 7 Comments Permalink

While we don't normally post updates on ordering after publishing the Corvette Constraints for the week, we thought this information was worth updating you on as it was redistributed to dealers by Chevy's District Managers.  The updates are in regards to 2 different options:  The Z4Z Indy Pace Car and the 67U Machine Silver constraints.

The Z4Z Indy Pace Car replicas are still available for ordering.  When we saw the number of available units the past couple of weeks for dealers to order, we thought demand might be a little low.  Looks like we were right.  This week the ZAZ constraints are not protected.  This means that if a dealer has a Pace Car order waiting in their que but doesn't have the allocation during the initial ordering cycle, they can pick one up if another dealer passes on their allocation.  As a reminder, there are 500 replicas being built.

67U Machine Silver is now officially discontinued.  We had heard rumors and posted those thoughts in the past couple of weeks and it has now been confirmed.  They will replace Machine Silver in 2009 with two different silver color options.  One is called Blade Silver Metallic (17U) which is a lighter silver color resembling Machine Silver and the other is Cyber Gray Metallic (57U), a darker color silver/gray.

We are accepting deposits on 2009 Corvettes, which we will gladly order for you in either of those new colors or any color you desire, all at GM Supplier Pricing for our Corvette Blog readers, with national delivery.  Call us or comment back today for more details.

Great news!  We finally have some information on the distribution method Chevy has decided on for the recently announced 427 Limited Edition Z06.

The first 427's will be available to order tomorrow, March 6th.  Here's the kicker... Dealers with 27 or more total Corvette sales will be awarded at least one Z44.

We are one of the elite dealers that will have a 427 Z06 available tomorrow to order!  If you are interested in placing a deposit on the order we have coming available, call us immediately at (888) 875-0728 or leave a comment (kept private) and we will get you all the information you need.

There will be two DOSP cycles that will be open for ordering of the Z44 constraint:  the first being tomorrow and the second being March 20th. 

Also to note is that the Z44 constraints will not be protected and no 427 Limited Edition pattern orders will be generated to fulfill allocations. Therefore, any Z44 constraints not utilized by the originally assigned dealer will be made available to any dealer with Z06 allocation during subsequent DOSP cycles.  That's extremely unlikely to happen.

While all the hype has been on the new 2009 ZR1, we can't forget about our favorite powerhouse Corvette of today, the Z06.  This past week, GM sent letters out to all dealerships who have estimated 2008 Z06 allocation through May, when the 2008 build out occurs.  Did you know many Chevy dealerships across the country aren't even allocated 1 Z06?  Distribution is based on many factors include previous sales and Corvette certification through training and testing of the dealership's staff.

We at CorvetteBlog are proud to report we have quite a few Z06's coming our way over the next few months and, as always, we will offer them to our CorvetteBlog readers first, and at discounted pricing.

Currently, we have 3 2008 Z06's instock ready for delivery.  All three are completely loaded with Nav and Wheels and come in such colors as Black, Victory Red and Jetstream Blue.  All are being offered at discounted pricing, so if you're interested, please contact us by posting a comment (kept private) or by calling us direct at (888) 875-0728.

As always, we at CorvetteBlog have the latest constraints straight from General Motors.  This week is a little different given the Christmas Holiday.  Dealers will be able to place orders between today and January 5th because of the 2 week GM shutdown.  The final day for configurations to be edited for this order cycle will be January 7th.

 2008 Corvettes that are ordered this week have the last Target Production Period (TPP) of 2007, being January 28-February 3, 2008.

Never did we think we'd be writing about a third price increase this year on 2008 Corvettes.  Unfortunately, GM announced today that it is raising prices on a majority of its vehicles, including Corvette Coupes, Convertibles, and now Z06's as well.  In addition to the price increase on the base vehicle prices, they are also increasing the destination charge on Corvettes to $850.

One would think this is pretty counterintuitive given GM's declining sales of Corvettes over the past year, but who ever said that GM was intuitive to begin with?

It is important to note, if you have ordered from CorvetteBlog, you are price protected against the increase.  If you are ordering from another dealer and they have not marked your order as sold or a "SRE" unit (the code for sold vehicle orders) then you are not protected.  These orders are called "TRE" orders, so you may want to check with the dealer who you've ordered your Corvette from to assure you aren't facing the new pricing.

So here's the details on base pricing of each model:

• Corvette Coupes:  $46,950
• Corvette Convertibles:  $55,425
• Corvette Z06s:  $72,125

Effective with all 2008 Corvette Coupes and Corvette Convertibles ordered this week by dealers is a price increase of $115.  The Base Price for the Coupe changes from $45,285 to $45,400, plus the Destination Charge of $825.  The Base Price of the Vert changes from $53,625 to $53,740, plus Destination Charge.  Mercifully, the Base Price of the Z06 remains unchanged.

Now really!  Corvette sales are a little sluggish, so the best we can do is raise the price again?  Sure, that will work!!!

The one good thing is that it makes the pricing on the remaining 2007 Coupes and Convertibles with $2-3000 Bonus Cash look even better!  If you are interested in one of our four remaining 2007 Corvettes, give us a call at 1.888.875.0728.

Many Corvette owners diligently work to protect their love, whether it be Coupe, Convertible, or Z06, from ever being rained on, or (perish the thought) snowed on!

Yet, countless Corvette dealers in the United States make no effort to protect the cars in their inventory from wind, rain, sleet, and snow.  Does this not seem outrageous?

The parent company of CorvetteBlog (George Matick Chevrolet) not only protects its inventory from the ravages of weather by keeping all Corvettes, new and used, indoors, they also offer a unique service to those purchasing a new Corvette.

Call it nothing fancier than Corvette Storage, but consider the advantages if you buy or lease a new Corvette from George Matick Chevrolet:

Everybody wants one!  The 2008 Corvette Z06 with 6-speed manual and LS7 Engine with 505 horses and 470 pounds-feet of torque is clearly one of the best supercars in the world, yet priced like vehicles offering far less performance.

However, in light of reduced Corvette driving time in the Upper Midwestern part of the United States over the coming winter, George Matick Chevrolet, parent company to CorvetteBlog, is willing to offer our most awesome Black 2008 Z06 at a significant discount!

The M.S.R.P. of $77,790 means that this machine includes the Chromed Aluminum Wheels, the DVD Navigation-AM-FM-MP3-CD Radio, 2LZ Trim (Heated Seats, Memory Package, Side Impact Airbags, and much more).  The Selling Price of just $71,627 offers you a spectacular opportunity to put this car in your driveway!  You can save $6163, but this car should move fast.  Don't delay.

We can assist in arranging shipment.  We can meet you at the airport.  We can hold in storage for spring pickup.  Just let us know.  Email may be too slow to take advantage of this offer.  Call me at 1-888-875-0728 ASAP!

The Corvette Factory Website has final loaded all the color information you will probably need to pick out your new Corvette on-line or order it for National Corvette Museum delivery.  A number of Corvette enthusiasts have told me that they were simply frustrated with the lack of factory info on colors, but not to worry, it's all there now!

Log on to www.chevrolet.com/corvette and then select the "Colors and 360 Degree" tab.  You will be able to rotate the car and see it in all of the Exterior colors. 

To view interiors, click on the Interior tab just above "Models" and "Colors".  Then click on the color chip of your choice, and you will see that color (or those colors) shown on an actual Corvette seat. 

Very nicely done, Chevy!  Wish we'd had it for the last four months, though.  By the way, our parent company has at least one of every exterior color currently in stock.  Send an email to bill@corvetteblog.com or call 1-888-875-0728 for additional info.  Inquiries are kept confidential.

If you're looking to order a new 2008 Corvette, make sure you pay attention to the following options which are currently either unavailable or in limited production:

• 4LT Package:  0 Available Nationally due to a Supplier Capacity Restriction.  They continue to say the duration of the constraint will be greater than 4 weeks.  Yet another week without the package.  (Luckily we have vehicles with the 4LT trim available now for delivery!)
  

• 3LZ Package:  0 Available Nationally due to a Supplier Capacity Restriction as well.  Again they are saying the duration of the constraint will be greater than 4 weeks.

Chevrolet has announced an interim price increase for the 2008 Corvette effective October 5th, 2007.  The adjustment is small, but still worth noting.

• 2008 Corvette Coupes increase $115
  
• 2008 Corvette Convertibles increase $245

If you have questions about the pricing changes and your order, please contact your selling dealer, who should be knowledgeable about the change and help you understand any changes to you order.

Chevy dealers all across the country have access today to their November Consensus.  For those who don't know what Consensus is, it is the report that Chevy sends to their dealers showing their estimated shipments of vehicles they can order for the following month's production period.

So what does that mean?  Basically it means that dealers know now how many Corvettes and Z06's they have been initially allocated by GM.  The Corvettes and Z06's that are ordered for this consensus period will be produced after November 15th.

Dealers can always ask for additional Corvettes and Z06's for the next week, but it is rare that GM provides any additional units than what they initially allocate.  Consensus is open for dealers until next Friday at which time they must commit to their orders.  We then find out the following Wednesday what has been approved by GM.

CorvetteBlog.com is set to have a great allocation of both 2008 Corvettes and 2008 Corvette Z06's during this period.  If you are interested in purchasing or leasing a new Corvette - give us a call at (888) 875-0728 or post a comment (which will be kept private).  We are proud to offer delivery throughout the United States, at our Corvette Showroom in Detroit, or at the Corvette Museum.
