In my view, at least a potential customer can contact the dealership and inquire about an incoming car and show interest for contact when a car arrives. The worst scenario I have seen at Cars.com was I was searching for a new Corvette, at least order one to have delivery by Summer 2021 (wishful thinking). Some dealers were listing a sold vehicle as being available with a 8% discount....You call, and they give the excuse they have just sold the car, but can get another with a 5K minimum deposit.....and delivery in a few months....yea right!! At least I have not seen this recently on the web site, but very sad. For anyone considering the new Corvette, expect a true delivery in a year (minimum) or if want one within a couple of months, expect to pay 25-30K above sticker, more for highly desired options. Small dealers are selling their allocation to the big dealers for 15-20K....easy money for them. This is why I moved on to looking at a 3/4 M competition.
