We keep hearing that the market for the C8 Corvette Stingray has started to cool down. While we’ve seen evidence of that in the secondary market with the prices of pre-owned Corvettes dropping and the time to sale increasing, we know many dealers who still have a list of customers wanting to order the new Corvette.

It’s Thursday and that means the GM order banks are opening up for dealers to match their just-received allocations to their customer’s orders. This order cycle features a Target Production Period of November 13-19th, but like anything, orders placed now could be built earlier or later than that date.

Previous order cycles were more specific to each model, with Stingrays being ordered one week and then the Z06 being ordered the next.

With GM opening up the order banks, they sent dealers the latest constraints which we have for you below.
