Pi$$ed off C8 buyer

[67since67]

Three of my friends who ordered C8s from local dealers at first opportunity:

1. Dave. Trades Corvettes every two years, always black, delivered about six weeks ago. N.P.

2. Terry. Generally buys two new GM products per year. Escalade, Denali etc.
He was told his 2020 C8 was canceled and was offered a 2021. Declined, told them he wanted a '20 not a '21. Told me "I got over it"

3. Keith. Trades Escalades every two years, Corvettes when he feels like it, generally every two-three years. Owns 4 vintage Corvettes now, has owned as many as 13 at one time. Was intending to buy his wife a 2021 convert.
Keith's C8 was built August 18th, FIVE WEEKS ago today. It is sitting on the ground in Bowling Green awaiting transportation, he is PI$$ED!!

Yes, there are circumstances involved in delivery of C8s, but this is no way to treat loyal customers of your high end product. Seems like GM is prioritizing EVs and the Chineese market while neglecting their loyal market base here.

I could see Terry and Keith going German and never looking back.
