Not true.
For the Camaro due to it's preordering, GM gave a "production guide number" to each dealer that told them how many they could expect to see up through third quarter (september) of this year. This is often incorrectly referred to as "allocation". It was just a guide for dealers to go off of for preorders, nothing more.
Dealers are informed of their allocation monthly (around the middle of the month) and it tells them what week they'll get allocation and how much they'll get. Then, in the weeks that were specified in the allocation report, they can actually place the orders.
