The author is still feeling bummed about not getting their car yet. They acknowledge that it's not like they're going to feel any better about it, but they're trying to stay positive. They remind themselves that there are some people who did get cars, and they're happy for them. The author also notes that they're particularly excited for those who got the C7 ZR1 model, which is a rare and sought-after car.

The author reflects on how lucky they were when they got their first car, an early C7 ZR1 with a unique VIN number. They also mention that they got another early car, a base model C8, before some people even had the chance to get a car. The author is grateful for what they have and tries not to dwell on what could have been.

Despite their disappointment, the author is determined to find a way to get a car as soon as possible. They're considering different options, such as watching Ram videos or buying a few extra copies of the car they're interested in (with limited edition posters). The author is also trying to stay positive and focus on the things they're grateful for.

The article ends with the author talking about how excited they are for people who did get cars. They want them to have fun with their new ride and enjoy it while it lasts. The author also teases that they might be able to show off their own car soon, although they can't reveal too much just yet.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat's up guys welcome back to the channel hope all of you are having a great day i've got some updates for you to start out the video number one i broke down and i took the svj wheels out of the boxes i had to make room for the scoop ski and i was tired of looking at that pallet in the garage so i took it all apart and here are the potential new wheels for the svg now these are the lightweight svj wheels i will say they are light like this is a big 21 inch wheel and i would say i mean it's you know it's got some weight to it but i would say maybe 30 pounds

do the color i want to do i'm worried that that color with the bronze might be too much give you a little idea of what it might oh ooh what it might look like that does look pretty good i gotta say

000 of you voted really awesome thank you guys for that and orange won by an overwhelming majority so when i ask you guys whether it's a poll or something on the video i really do read the comments i

quick if you do want to enter a limited entry giveaway that is live right now we got you covered we have this beautiful brand new mach 1 mustang all the right options 6-speed recaro's big wing front lip this car is epic you have a one in 1 500 chance of taking this car home and we're about halfway sold out hit that link down below and good luck this will be the last mustang by the way you guys have made it pretty clear you like the corvettes they sell out in a few days the mustang we're in a little over a month now and we're almost halfway we're getting there but you guys have uh made it pretty clear you like the corvettes more than the mustangs all good tried something different but this will be the last one it's not like i'm a huge mustang guy either but i do love what ford did with this car it sounds incredible drives really nice the rev match works like crazy good it's a it's a sweet car i can't lie i think it's worth the chance to win this car even if you're not a mustang guy or gal you'll like it give it a shot you'll like the car sounds darn good too well not surprisingly but unfortunately we have some more bad news we got to cover with the c806 and this time i got screwed um and you'll find out why in a second but this time it's not about a greedy dealership or a markup this is about production of the car itself let me read you a quick little note here from the corvette blogger breaking news gm to halt new 2023 corvette z06 orders through the end of 2022 which means if your order for a a06 is not in yet it will not go in and doesn't have the chance to go in until 2023 they are shutting it down so that's for those of you at home counting that september october november december four months and it might not even be like you know jan one when they accept new orders it might be february march who knows it could be half a year it's reasonable to think it might be half a year until other people are going to be able to order a z06 which i think is really screwed up because i think i speak for everyone and you might disagree leave a comment if you want but i feel like more people would be happy rather than releasing the car earlier and having a few people be able to order and get one and then stop it i think everyone would have liked it more if they had said hey let's delay the release of the car and delay the reveal and then we'll release that and allow people to order and build a car when we're ready they're never going to you know be able to keep up with demand there's always going going to be some delay but i think that would have been better rather than have some people get a car and everyone else has to watch them drive around i feel like it would have been way less crappy to just kind of delay the whole thing a little bit they could have delayed it by a couple of months nobody would have really cared and i think that's better than this because gm's a big company they know like there's no way they thought all their ducks were in a row and they thought it was going to go smooth i'm sure they knew or had an idea that it they might not be totally ready i feel like they should have planned for that ahead of time but either way i digress earlier today we shared news that chevrolet had sent their dealers an update about these e06 we found out that it also included a webcast from chevy global president scott bell in which he says that gm will be halting the submission of any new z06 orders through the end of this calendar year this move we are told allows gm to better handle the ramp up in production for the z06 and not get into what we saw with the 2020 corvette stingray basically saying like hey there was such a big delay with these cars the base model we don't want that to happen again that is a pretty big deal if you're waiting to order a new z06 you just got bumped another four months and the lists are already like crazy long so that could be i mean that's huge for people and i think there is going to be a lot of anger now how does that apply to me though well as it turns out and despite what i was told earlier and what we all thought my car was not selected yet by gm which again we thought it was it was not um so that means my car will not be built until 2023. now that's a bummer for sure you know whether or not i have a channel like yes you have a youtube channel it helps to get an early car of course but i want the car regardless i have an svj that really doesn't get many views but i still love the car and whether or not i have a channel i still want the c806 because i think it's going to be an epic car so i would be bummed regardless however i would be a lot less bummed if the information i'm about to tell you wasn't true what exactly is going on here well i'm here to tell you all about it i'm sure you guys know by now that i am partnered with whitmore chevrolet here in pa and my buddy matt beaver is the corvette guy over there and we've built something really cool via social media and with what i bring to the table and him being like a go-getter and wanting to take part in this we've built something really cool over the last couple of years whitmore went from like some low number i don't even know what it was to the number one corvette dealer in pennsylvania and pretty high up nationally as well it's been really cool to grow it and to be a part of it and get all my corvettes through them it's been great and people on social media took notice if you remember when the c8 came out tj hunt and i took delivery of our cars same day uh there at whitmore really cool had a great time and you might also recall that stradman and amelia went with a different dealer they kind of got screwed over a little bit they were promised an early car didn't come in didn't work out for them and it was like a lot later they didn't like that and they reached out either to me or beaver and we got it gone and now like all these big youtubers are ordering at my little local chevy dealer which i think is epic we love it we have a great time and when i heard that whitmore didn't get any allocations which is true they didn't get any whitworth got zero which was weird because they are a pretty big dealer but they got zero when i heard that i was like man that really sucks all these youtube people aren't even going to get a car which i know is important for them then come to find out people very high up at gm called and said hey we we're gonna make sure even though your dealership got zero allocations uh we do want to make sure that three certain people have their cars built so you give us the info for those cars we'll make sure they get built outside of the normal ordering process and those three people were straight man tj and amelia not me you'll notice i'm not on that list i get it they have bigger channels than me by a long shot but it just sucks like again if nobody got allocations it's cool but for me to be like always first on the list and again not because i'm a youtuber who cares anybody can be a youtuber that means nothing but i'm always on the list early because i was always up beaver's butt talking about like hey but you know is there any info on this car like make sure i'm still on your list like i still want the car like make sure i'm there and i was always on the list so regardless of the youtube thing as a normal person i was always putting in the phone calls and putting the money down and doing everything to make sure i was always on the list because i wanted early cars but they're the big they're the big fish in the pond and gm doesn't owe me any they don't have to get me a car period i'm glad that i'm getting a car that's sweet um sure i've done a lot for the corvette brand but the corvette brand has done a lot for me so i don't i it's not like i'm sitting here and gonna be mad about it for days but it just it definitely sucked it feels i guess it feels worse because imagine like you have your local dealership and you're number one on the list and then like you find out that gm put in a call for somebody to go to go above you because they're more important than you like that's why it feels like it's that's why it feels like it sucks that's all just it doesn't feel very good again i i understand why but it still does it's not like i'm gonna feel any better about it gotta close that door because i have a surprise outside and i'm tired of sitting in the chair no more chairs beaver broke one of those once and uh it wasn't pretty but yes you know thinking about it i can't complain like and number one i'm super pumped for the people who got one that's epic i'm happy for them and i hope they you know have fun with it um and there's a lot of people look there's a ton of people that aren't getting a car especially now after this news so i shouldn't even complain it's really not a big deal i'll just uh you know i do want to get one early so i'm gonna have to try a plan b here try to find something try to do something to get an early car um and look you know i got very lucky on c7 zr1 i got a really early car vin number four uh and then i got another one before some people even got a car then base model c8 i was very lucky again i got a really really early one really one of the first on youtube i think like the second or third total so very lucky you know you can't win them all and i totally accept that so i as much as i'm bummed i didn't get a car like i said i'll try plan b maybe it was the ram videos maybe i maybe it was all my ram trx videos and i can't show you the trx because the car is right there and you know what maybe you saw it but um yeah you know i'm thankful for i'm thankful for everything that i did have and have still today it's not a big deal whatsoever and maybe i'm being a little dramatic it was a bummer but we'll get through it and like i said hopefully try to figure out try to get something here because i don't want to wait man i don't want to wait five months for a car like that's gonna suck really like i want the car so i will do my best hope you guys enjoyed this upload if you did give it a big thumbs up take care have a great night i'll see you
