CONFIRMED: 2020 C8 Corvette Deliveries Will Be Delayed Because GM And The UAW Can't Play Well Together

The new mid-engine 2020 C8 Chevrolet Corvette is almost already sold out completely, but everyone waiting on their car will have to wait a little bit longer due to the United Auto Workers strike reportedly delaying production.

It’s been three weeks since the UAW went on strike amid contract negotiations with General Motors, shutting down most of the automaker’s U.S. manufacturing operations. That includes the Bowling Green Assembly plant that was finishing up production of the outgoing front-engine C7 Corvette before retooling to build the new mid-engine C8.

I bet UAW workers will booby trap new C8 Corvettes during construction.

The 2020 Corvette is not "sold out". Product supply has been allotted to dealers, but buyers have not purchased every one of the 2020s.

We were told not to expect the C8 until maaaybe February, but now we're probably talking April.

GM should lock the bastards out and file for bankruptcy. Trump could make a condition of the reorganization that the company will not be mandatory union because that would be a conflict with the old company.
