So your saying you dont have proof then?
Ill let you go back and read what i asked for.
Wut? Is buying a base car some kind of conspiracy? Lol... Go to a chevy dealer and order a base no option car and thats what it'll be plus the doc fees/tax etc.

i get what he’s saying is that there is probably no such a thing. More than likely there has to be a catch to it. Thats my guess.

maybe @13COBRA can chime in? Have you ever seen a pure no option car before? Is this even possible?

I have seen people order zero option trucks. The only catch is dealer fees and taxes, like any car, its definitely not bs. Just rare. If you are looking for a dead base car/truck on the lot then yea, you'll never find one.

wow Ive never seen that. I usually buy the lowest optioned trucks with the last one only having the V8 as the only option. I knew you used to be able to do that with the japanese trucks when bumpers were an option

Exactly my point and why I'm so confused at some of the comments. It's like people are ordering cars with options others choose for them.

Granted I've only ordered 2 brand new cars in my life but it was pretty straight forward. Walk in put deposit down pick options and sign contract.

Well some like to rag on the C8 trying to find any excuse for it not being an incredible deal.

No jokes one of the few mustang guys actually hit the wall entering the track where literally nobody crashes. Was sad

i see them knuckleheads out in the rain sliding all over the damn place. Got to the point where Ive actually stopped and waited for guys to get down the road so I was nowhere close to them

I believe the 2LT starts at 67, think the 3LT starts at 71...now of course you can add shit to that
Looks like you’re right...then I guess it was a typo.

Edit: my brain is all ****ed from trying to learn how to balance redox reactions.

not at my post...

This is from Chevrolet’s website. I’d give it a year for the hype to die down as well as 1st model year issues to get sorted.
