The number is a 6 digit number and you would need the one that is your dealers, i called DBC about mine this morning and they said it looks like they are shipping, but not mine yet, since it was just repaired on sunday you have to remember they have like over 2000 cars to ship out that takes some time.

 

guess I will TRY to be patient and wait for my dealer to call me back since he he said he would call me today around 2-5pm

 

yeah same here mine has been built got the vin about 2 and a half weeks ago my dealer told me they called over today and still doing quality checks

 

Yup they told me the same thing, when i now for damn sure the quality check has already been done on my car and the issue fixed but they are still clueless as usual.

 

My dealer has still yet to call me back

 

18mm nut?? hanging where?? was this something you found loose during the PDI?? (AFAIK there's no 18mm nuts anywhere on the 300V battery pack or it's mounting)

I know that is what was werid, that is why it freaked me out, i have found cut wiring and other crap in PDI's but everything was there and working so who ever knows.

 

my dealer just contacted me and stated that my car is in transit. It should arrive in mira loma tomorrow.
then they have to ship it to my dealer. so hopefully by next tuesday ill have it

 

I'm wondering, my car has a build date of May 19, would it be on batch hold after?

 

Mine was built on the 13th and it's on hold. so who knows.

 

Not sure how they are deciding to ship these out, i was tracking orders all day and the vin order had nothing to do with it, the only pattern i could see was the the closest states to ohio where getting orders shipped out, guessing us guys on the west coast have to wait to get a train or something who knows.

 

$22,227.68

This is the number that I get here on this site for American bought SS/TC's. Here in Canada I priced one from the dealer that I got my SS/NA from a year ago and the bill came to a couple of dollars short of $30 000. It was like $29 700 or something. I spec'd it with sliding moon roof, LSD, and also XM radio with a single disc MP3 CD deck.

Considering that the dollar has been par between Canada and also America for like MONTHS, WTF is the reason that the car I want here is like $7000 more than in the States? I am
100% tired of being dicked in the anus when it comes to car prices.

Sorry...just needed to vent because it makes me furious.

 

well im in PA... i hope it come soon... like tomorrow

dont you wish you were lol

 

Hmmm doesnt sound right
The MSRP for the USA model is $22995. The Canadian model is $24995.

Options (what few there are, G85 LSD, enahanced radio w/changer, sunroof etc) are VERY similarily priced. While the "destination" charges might be a bit more it's not a $7000 difference at least at the retail level

didnt think the 08 had a g85 package?

 

G85 is just GMs Regular Production Option (RPO) code for a limited slip differential (and is used in MANY OTHER GM vehicles as well)
On the Balt it just doenst INCLUDE "extras" (such as the Recaros) anymore, but it's still available AS AN OPTION for the SS/TC that you would have to order and pay extra for ($495 in USA $645 in Canada)
WOT

 

oops sorry thanks for the info learning as much as i can about these cars before my ss/tc comes in so i don't look like a dumb ass on the forums Lol

 

Were they rolling over some money from your 07 as a trade in or something?

 

no rukkee, Canadians have to pay a lot more for cars

 

My car got shipped out!!!

 

you lucky bastard.... i still dont know if mine did or not my dealership didnt call me like they said they were? They will call back and say, "sorry we made a MISTAKE, and sold your car to someone else."

 

Anyone actually take delivery? WTF are they using to ship them, a car hauler being towed by a turtle? Jesus, if I paid for this car back when they first started taking orders I would be PISSED right now. I can understand them having problems but come on. They've been stalling for way too long now.

 

just put a diposit 0f 2,000 on a black 08 ss that is "shipped" and should be here tues. Im from the jersey shore and memorial day is crazy so i dont expect it untill after monday.

My only ? is can you turn lsd on and off like the vettes and camaros

 

No this LSD can't, and camaros and vettes don't have electronic diffs either.

 

the LSD on all GM cars are mechanical to my knowledge

the Camaros and Vettes had a switch to turn off the traction/stability control is probably what you are thinking about
