I'm in the same boat. but I've been waiting over 7 years for this car. a few more months wont hurt me. if someone else gets their car before me... so be it. as long as I'm getting mine.
NOONE could give me the answers I sought. Not even fbodfather. ONE dealer posted their thoughts on the January IDL and they were told they were wrong (some of it was wrong but this piece wasn't).

Why should we have to rely on dealers to explain this sort of situation? The fact is, most dealers are unable or unwilling to fully explain the allocation system. Even if they themselves understand it, that would give the consumer more power (knowledge = power). There is absolutely no reason this wasn't explained better. Even the whole "production guide" situation wasn't published in official documentation. SEVERAL of the dealerships I contacted told me there was no such thing as a guide number for the Camaro. Either they were just selling as many as they could or they weren't selling any. They could have easily put the basic information regarding guide, allocation, etc in a document and posted it online.

Tag chose to do that. He needs no sympathy. He'll have a beast of a car as a result.

In the end, this is all just discussing things we can't change (the past). What we need is actions going forward.

Come on GM, move the rest of us lesser-celebrities to the front of the pack like you did Dr. Phil, Jay Leno, and half the NASCAR drivers.
