Ordered 10/13 - Confirmed from Chevy Sales Rep 2SS not coming until July!
My dealer principal just spoke to me about the estimated time when I get my car.
Chevy Manufacturer Sales rep was in yesterday - Dealer principal asked about my 2SS/RS - said all dealers will get their one V6 built first, before any pre-ordered "sold" cars would be built for that dealer. Our dealer MUZI CHEVROLET is not getting our V6 until MAY!! so the Manufacturer Rep said that my car probably won't get here until JULY! This is not specultion per the rep - it's the fact... This Blows - I want this car, but then I think I should maybe get something else. I don't know what to do...

It all depends on where you are on your dealers priority list and how many your dealer was allocated total. You may have ordered on the first day, but if a couple people came in before you and your dealer has a small allocation, you'll be around late summer. If you're number one, you'll get your car way before July.

Sounds like your dealer has a special inside line to production that no one else has.... Maybe I should be jealous!!!!

I feel your pain. I've got a V6 on order and was told by dealership to move it to V8 if I wanted it sooner due to constraint on V6.
I've got the cash in hand to give to GM but apparently they'd rather wait several more months to take it from me. All the while with the increased chance of additional dealerships folding, GM going into bankruptcy, or me changing my mind and buying a different car because I sold my 2nd car last novemeber and its getting harder each month to not go out and get a 2nd one. But hey whatever, as long as the dealerships get their freebie V6 cars I guess the world will be right as rain. |

So your dealer has not received any allocation and will not be until may/june? The one-per-dealer v6 is supposed to arrive by May 6th, at the LATEST, to ALL dealers. I find it extremely hard to believe that your car, if you're #1 and your dealer isn't doing anything shady, will not arrive til June.
What was their total production guide number given back in October? Even if it is 1, I HIGHLY doubt that they won't get their one allocation til June. I hope you realize that "freebie" is a misnomer as these cars are certainly being paid for by the dealerships and the customer that buys them. |

That's what I was told, but Dealer Principals and the Rep. could be wrong. ( I hope!)

I was out yesterday so wasn't able to speak to our rep face-to-face. I will try to give her a call later today.

this car doesn't need any promoting just having people driving around in it is enough of a promotion for everyone. what is having a v6 gonna do sitting in the dealership just piss off more people that can't get it but them having one sitting there.

I bet that some dealers will offer their car to the person that is first on the order list for a V6.... Since my dealer is getting 3 V6 cars and Mine is the only V6 sold order then I about bet they will offer one of them to me...

Why, oh why, do I have an issue with that statement... I just won't even comment- it's too easy.

Just what he told me yesterday..they will get 3 that do not count towards their allocation and that they cannot order themselves.... I guess with so many dealers going out of business some are going to get a few more cars... He did not say they would be getting all three at the same time though...
