ORDER NOT GONE THROUGH

[rogerspt]

Hey guys!
I'm having some trouble getting information and I was wondering if y'all could help out. I secured an allocation at a dealership back in November and told them all the options I wanted for the car. Unfortunately, though, my dealer keeps telling me that she hasn't been able to place the order with GM yet. Is this a common issue right now? Is there a list of when each dealership will be able to place orders?? I'm getting worried that we're getting the run-around and might not even get a 2012 after all. Someone please help me out! Thanks!

If they are indeed supposed to receive a ZL1 -- they should be able to show you proof of that via a message they rec'd from GM.

They should also be able to show you a 6-digit order number (combination of letters and numbers) to show that GM has acknowledged the order.

That said - it does not mean that your ZL1 will be built right away - there's a slow ramp-up - and we build them thru early June.

Okay. Well the last time I spoke to her she said that she tries to input the order every Thursday but it simply hasn't gone through yet. I find this odd because they are supposed to receive two cars for the 2012 model year and two for 2013, of which I hold the number 1 allocation for 2012. Do you suppose that means the dealership will not be receiving a car at all?

If you are wanting to place a ZL1 order and your dealer cant produce you an order number then they dont have an allocation to sell and you better go looking elsewhere.

does a pliminary order number mean they have an allocation?

[Drake Heminger]

being at 2030 does that also prove they have an allocation?

GM has picked up your order!

rogerspt, you need to get an order workbench number from your dealer.

[IROCanSS]

1100 - waiting on allocation
2000 and above - you got an allocation

This has be covered, what about 15 times at least.

mmmmm....kinda sorta - it means that GM has accepted the order and it has run thru the Edit tables and is "buildable" - it does not necessarily mean that the dealer has allocation.


No dealer knows their allocation for 2013.

Now wait, Scott... This goes against everything I've ever heard... kinda sorta.

I thought once it went to GM you were good.

I have never been to 2000 before... should i be any bit concerned that i havent moved from 2030 since december 13th? i dont mind waiting i just wanna make sure my dealer has an allocation... i dont wanna wait for nothing you know?

this should answer a lot of questions for a lot of people.

I like what Scott said and that the ZL-1 is going to be built until June. That's a lot of time to pump out some Camaros (all models)

Look up, You have plenty of time for your car to be built. If GM takes notice that the ZL-1 is turning into a very sellable vehicle they will do what ever it takes to fill those orders.

Remember they are a sale based company,(wait all companies are..right?) So if the ZL-1 brings in a high demand and is profitable to GM, you bet your booty they will try to fit as many as they can to boost the yearly sales numbers.
