Per the below site they noted that there were 178 Chevrolet SS sold in November. Not as many as I would expect, but hopefully December will do better with them getting to dealers.

First of all only 585 or so very on first ship second my car got here Nov. 14th so that being said only about 16 selling days and not all cars delivered. Second shipment has gone out but not all of them and it had less cars.
So I think the sales #'s are good compared to # of cars and not all cars delivered yet.

From what one member has stated here that a car from the FIRST shipment was just rolling into PA. Getting these cars to market, especially in this weather is going to be a challenge. Considering that cars from the SECOND shipment were still in the rail yard at Benicia about two weeks ago gives credence to this shipment situation.

Correct!

First shipment car ordered June 6th arrived at dealer DECEMBER 3rd.

2 dealers in the Philadelphia metro market received their 3 cars about 2 weeks prior that I know of but others did not. 1 was a retail sold car. The other 2 are dealer stock.

I know of one large old time dealer that is only using his allocation of a couple cars for retail sold orders and except for us guys who ordered on faith it would be a stellar car the demand is low since you really can't see one and so few know about it.

Not a lot of people are going to drop 50 large on a car they can only see in a picture!

Not a lot of people are going to drop 50 large on a car they can order but realistically expect to wait 4-6 months to get.

About 80% of the cars in my market area are black including in transit, orders in the system and not built yet! Most are dealer stock orders too!

But it is what it is and I'm grateful for it!

I'm impressed. Problem right now is they are really limited on dealer lots. Only 3 show up in a 30 mile radius from my house and they are all black. If they could average around 250 a month that would put them right at 3k a year.

Here in El Paso there are 6 on dealer lots and if you extend the radius a but itll cover 3 more on 3 different lots. All are PBM except 3. 1 each in white, red and silver. I have the only one on the streets right now and its only got 303 miles on it.

All...Not to rain on any parade but I purchased mine on 11/08/13 in Southern California which had only arrvied the evening before from docks of Benica...California tends to get the new models even before the East Coast and Michigan so I'm thinking mine was part of the first 600 shipped...The dealer I purchased mine from is to receive a second one but no time table...They just arrive...
