First world problem and not related to boating, but this site has some pretty insightful members so here goes.....I put a deposit on a new C8 Corvette Convertible in November 2020. AT that time, they told me it would be six months before actually specing the new car and likely 9 months before it was delivered. By the end of the six months their answer had changed to "we have no idea if or when you will see this car" The deposit remained. In the meantime, I took delivery of a new 2021 911 Cabriolet in August 2021. I love the car but don't drive it much. It's got 1600 miles on it and 300 of those were the day I brought it home from the dealer in Maryland. The Chevy dealer called me last week and told me I am next on their list and they should get an allocation within the next few weeks. I asked if I could order a ZO6, they said no, they may never see a ZO6 and even if they do the owner of the dealership wants it. I could, however, order a 70th Anniversary Edition, but I'm not sure I'm interested in that. Anyway, my deal on the C8 is at MSRP and I can not assign it to another buyer. I guess I have three options. Buy the C8 and keep the 911; buy the C8 and sell or trade the 911; or, get my deposit back and keep the 911. Having both the 911 and the C8 will require to put an $8,000 lift on one side of my garage (there's a Z/28 on the other side). So what does this esteemed group think?
