Buyers started placing orders for the 2027 model year Corvettes back in April, and it’s only as of yesterday afternoon that Chevrolet has finally launched the Build and Buy Configurators for the 2027 Corvette Stingray, Z06, and the ZR1/ZR1X models. But as with previous model year configurator launches, Chevy’s developers are still working on getting it fully functional even as buyers are flocking to the system to build their own dream rides.
Luckily, it appears that full pricing is up from the get-go, even if some of the renderings of your build are replaced with the silhouette of a Chevy SUV.
I attempted first to build a Stingray, but the actual renderings were replaced with the SUV-placeholder after picking my exterior color. For the rest of the build, I was never able to see my creation until it finally appears as a small image on the summary page. Clicking on it just brought up the full-size SUV again.
After a few times of going back and forth between the screens, my build image finally appears! So, I guess the thing to do is to keep trying, and if your build doesn’t render correctly, save it and then attempt to come back later.
My second build featuring a Z06 went much smoother and I was able to see my creation on every screen. Perhaps that is due to the Z06 having less new content for the 2027 model year than the Stingray? I got images on every screen now so we’re making progress!
I immediately switched over to start building a Corvette ZR1 and that model came in as well as the configurator allowed me to make multiple changes while still rendering the correct image.
For my final masterpiece of the day, I went to the ZR1X configurator and still received all images as intended. I picked the new Pitch Grey Metallic for a ZR1X Convertible and added just the two-tone Sky Cool Gray seats with Blue seat belts. I then went back to the exterior screen and picked the blue brake calipers so I would have a bit of a “theme” with the build. Of course, I added the high wing but if this was really my build, I would probably forgo it as it’s just so damn big!
Once I hit the options page, I did go a little cray-cray with Stealth and the Level 2 carbon fiber interior packages. Of course, Front Lift is mandatory for a car like the ZR1X and I went ahead and selected the Corvette Engine Build Experience because you only live once, amirite?
After a couple more options selected which include the R8C Museum Delivery, my build totals $289,935. Here’s the final result:
I wrote this article in real-time as I was configuring these Corvettes, and the takeaway is that if the Configurator isn’t rendering images correctly, just stay with it as they eventually all did come in for me. If you are getting the SUV placeholder images, you can always save your creation and then come back when perhaps the configurator may not be as busy. Click here to visit the Chevy Configurators.
Let the 2027 Corvette dream builds commence!
