Allocation ........
Quote:
GM's "month" runs from the 15th to the 15th of each month. GM takes X # of orders per week during that timeframe. Usually on a Monday night/Tuesday morning of each week. Each dealer has, what my dealership called, a "Production Cue". My dealership was getting 3-5 orders per month pulled by GM at first... I was #45 in their "Production Cue" (meaning there were 44 other orders ahead of me) at the time I ordered, in early May. As orders got pulled into production by GM & some cancelled their orders, I moved down the "Production Cue" list. As time has gone on, GM has gone to the "Turn & Earn system", meaning the more Camaros you sell, the more Camaro allocations you will get, as well as the current set of allocations they were given in the beginning. So, allocations increased. I finally went from #45 in early May to being pulled into production in late July. (11 1/2 weeks to be exact). So, see? This is all you need to know when you go to order: 1) Where will your order be on the dealerships "Production Cue" (or whatever they may call it) and/or How many orders are ahead of yours? 2) How many allocations per month are they getting. Then you should be able to determine approximatley when your order will go into production. It takes 6-8 weeks on average to get your car once it has been accepted by GM (event code 2000). GM is getting faster at the deliveries as I've been seeing lately. Good luck to ya!!

why do alot of the people on here refer to the Camaro as "maro"? with no disrespect to you but it just sounds retarded.
