Then add the super limited C8 production capacity, that many dealers are now selling MY22 allocations they hope to one day have if they’re not driven out of business long before that, etc.

Hotter C8 models that are sure to follow are going to make people paying ridiculous sums for existing, but poorly built from suspect materials, C8 examples quite unhappy in the next year or two.

The limited C8 supply has driven the ZL1 market crazy.

I watch these cars like a hawk and they don’t sit for long. I track them daily. Like any other quant nerd.

And when I ask Chevy dealers, it’s because guys would rather go with something like a ZL1 than try to pay DMA on any unclaimed C8s.

I think this is in addition to any COVID19 weirdness.
