Yes, that's how I know. MY price would get to LOL price on a base C8. Again, hard pass.

I have a low # @ Ciocca for the Z

While I somewhat agree, she has been heavily involved with Chevy for the past few years. It's no surprise she would get first crack as she has been a great brand ambassador for them.

It’s free marketing for GM.

Who would people wanna watch more emelia or Matt Farrah?

GM wants the audience emelia has, not Matt Farrah.

Doesn't GM understand that the (underage) people who click on Emelia's videos mostly stare at Emelia, not her cars?

Right. And guys, or car guys, cherish adore and fantasize about a girl who is also into cars.

Whatever she does or says, people follow.

That’s the point.

Are you saying you cannot spec a Stingray where YOU feel it delivers an attractive value in the marketplace?

Congrats though. You will be one of the first to get a chance at owning GM's first supercar.

Good thing i got a stingray coming, because i had a feeling getting this car would be difficult, even though i have a low number at MM. Hopefully the allocations start pouring in around fall.

Wait wait wait. Chevy didn't show up at your house, roll a brand new Z06 out and hand it to you like the Stanley Cup? Do you need a hug or something?

Best I can do right now, I asked for an updated order sheet but he was like, it's the same as what we already built. So I got a screen shot of the Chat showing it's going to production.

That's what i'm going with for my SR. The C8Z is torch red.

Definitely a sick spec. Can't wait to see yours man. So jealous you're ahead of the pack.

Thanks man, yeah it was a last minute color change. I had it as a black black Z07 because you needed it to get carbon fiber wheels but the high wing was on constraint and they separated carbon wheels from Z07 so it worked out perfectly. I decided to take more advantage of 3LZ and not get a black interior after all and as a result changed my exterior color also.

I think certain colors will look better on the z06 than the SR. That's why i have 2 different color choices for both cars. I am a fan of the white type of shade but also like red on the z06. I can't do torch red for the SR.

But at the same time i see hypersonic and then elkhart blue on the z06 and that looks so insane.

I think i have my mind set on torch red though for the z06. Since it'll be a forever car i think i won't get bored with red on a car like the z06.

Red is better than white like every guido in the tri-state area.
