"Allocation" as it's referred to on this forum is really irrelevant at this point - there's no way to prove how many any dealer is getting.

Dealer A could be getting 8, has them all sold at msrp or higher - and realizes he can place an unlimited amount of orders. The dealer now says he has 40 allocations, and starts to offer every discount offered. By the end of the month dealer A has 40+ orders......but since dealer A has exceeded his ESTIMATED GUIDE NUMBER, many may not come.

Now, that said, I'm not saying that's what going on here - but people better think about canceling and reordering at this point - The car is coming, and now more than ever there will be some dealers who misunderstand the process and over promise this car.


Just be careful - it may make the difference of you getting or NOT getting a car this year.
