    About to Order a new 427 Convertible

    Catbert, I know i've seen plenty of 2012's in dealers lots but for now it makes sense since the 2013's haven't been "officially" released yet. I can't understand if this is what dealers want or what? Maybe they depend on having the Vettes to draw-in crowds that eventually end-up buying their...

    About to Order a new 427 Convertible

    Catbert it's a good question, and I read that they are working 11 hour days now too. But apparently the orders from dealers were creeping in and then I found out the factory workers that buildl the cars have the month of July off. That pretty much means that all the accumulated orders that...

    About to Order a new 427 Convertible

    67Vet, wish I could say it's soon but, I'm afraid my order will be taking a long time to build because the dealer's estimate was the first week in August. :ugh I can only speculate though..... Because I only submitted the order to the dealer yesterday, he entered the order into the system...

    About to Order a new 427 Convertible

    Ok, I guess that CFZ package may not be for me at this time then (this whole car purchase for me at this time is a kind of bittersweet event anyway, but that's another story!) ..... I usually keep to the less costly options on these cars unless they really do something that I want or need (with...

    About to Order a new 427 Convertible

    thanks for the practical advise......it's food for thought ........ I wonder at what speed the pieces begin to work and actually help reduce the car's drag and increase downward pounds.... you would think at some point chevy has announced this, but I've googled for it and didn't find it yet...;shrug
