According to GM if the Dec 7 production end date is correct that is only 15 days away. Isn't there something about calling a vehicle a 2024 model year at least 1 has to be built in that calender year? If so maybe the G56's will be the very last off the line and not get completed/issued VIN numbers until after midnight on Dec 31st?

A dealer reached out to me yesterday to tell me their G56 order was approved to be built. But per the window sticker trick, they already made 2 G56 cars for GM

Sounds like all the G56 cars will ship by mid Dec.

Anybody got one secured yet?

Must all be secured because I've had 0 luck on all my calls. But I'll keep trying. Want a riptide or red hot 6 speed. Take radiant red as well if nothing else. Just no black white or silver.

Riptide blue manual ZL1 1LE that's not on the list. Couldn't get the window sticker. Already spoken for.

This is very interesting that this car isn't showing up in any of the VIN searches the Raidator is doing, yet it clearly exists and has a window sticker. I'm guessing the other CE cars we're missing all have window stickers too, the script is just somehow not detecting them.

This car is already being advertised on AutoTrader. At 100k with ADM for pretty much any of these 40+ 24 ZLE's ,it will be interesting to see where the values are in a couple of years. Sure, it's the last year but will that equate to them being worth that 30k more V a nice clean 20-23 for 25k less? They did make thousands of these, i don't see the CEZL1's ever getting close to the 125k dealers are getting for them,not so sure on the ZLE's.

To me it is hard to tell about the CE but it is a one year item, being the last year. Yes it is a sticker package somewhat, but at least they did something. It's not as bad as the GT500 Heritage edition which is nearly half of the 4000 production rate in 2022.

As far as the ZLE, it will be very limited for 2024, but it has been made every year of production. How does that effect future values? I'm torn between my 2022 GT500 Code Orange and the CE I have a deposit on. Would like to go back to a 6 speed thouigh.

Apples and oranges relative to performance, but last time round GM did the same weak farewell thing with the 02 Z4C( also a sticker and badge job) and twenty years + down the road you can find them in the wrapper for around what they sold for new. End of the day it's a 100k+ Camaro which is hard to wrap your head around.

Very good point. G56 is my favorite this year, ZL1 1LE too rough for me lol. A 2SS 1LE would be fun though.

Actually the ZLE has not been made every year of production. It started in 2018, and has been very limited the last three or four years. I just got back from the LA auto show and all I can say is the CE paint is very unique. This was on a regular convertible, sorry I didn’t pay attention to the trim. I was mesmerized by the magnitude of heavy flake in the paint. I have no idea if the Panther is different. It was so over the top I’m not sure I liked it or hated it, none the less I couldn’t stop looking at it. Very unique indeed.

Both their 6M Riptide's are sold. I don't think with 42 of these there will be any available that were dealer stock.
