Not really - those dates represent the WEEK of the build, so it could be that phyter's is the Friday/Saturday of his week, and yours is the Monday of your week, which is only one work day different.

I called my dealer today to see how far my build week was pushed back. I was told that as of yesterday, my BOSS is still scheduled for the week of Jan 24. Guess I'll have to wait till Monday or so for my dealer to catch up.

Well it's official now. I just received notice from my dealer that I got bumped from 1/31 to 2/28 AAI. I assume it's related to the module for the 302 motor referenced above, but he didn't have any details at this point. If everything else "goes as planned" this isn't necessarily bad news since I won't be able to drive it until late March at best. The problem is that the problems have just started so the odds that it gets pushed again might be higher.

Sure would be cool if we could pick up our cars at the plant. Of course, wouldn't want to drive it home in March. Doesn't Chevy have an option to see your car go down the line for Corvettes?

The Corvette museum has an option to see your car go down the line, and another option to pick it up at the museum. They also have an option to buy a book that has pictures of your Corvette as it went down the line. None are free.

In the first post the author did mention that they will be getting overtime on Saturdays, so there is an extra day per week to built the cars. It does say a lot about about how the schedule the lines, not only did they shut down V6's because of a V8 part shortage but Mazda is also shut down.

I was Jan 18. Unfortunately I have not gotten a lot of info from my dealer and as of now I do not have a new date. The original build date I got from a member here. If he sees this maybe he can get an update, I understand that he is busy and don't want to add to that.

No update yet from my dealer (1/17 build date) but based on everything I hearing here, I won't be surprised when it does. StillIntense and I had the same build date so I expect mine to slide as well. I will update when I know more
