I was getting ready to say the same thing. Just because production has slowed there could be other factors, especially since they have announced all 500 2014's have been ordered.

Could some of those sold orders accepted by GM not be allocated as of yet?

I don't think a dealer can order one without an allocation.

If I understand it right, a dealership gets 0, 1, or 2 allocations for 2014. They don't have to order any, and they can trade allocations for other allocations among dealers. A dealer wants another Z/28, they might trade a Stingray allocation for it.
Saying 500 Z/28's "sold" means that GM sold all 500 to dealers who used their allocations. Some were ordered by customers, but normally the lion's share is ordered by dealers with no pre-determined customer.

I was told be the dealer GM accepted the order, however it has not been pulled for production yet. Does that make sense?

There could be supplier issues or other things though that has kept the order from being pulled for production.

Yes, call your dealer tomorrow and ask for the Order Number. Mine is RPFFTF
Then go to http://www.chevrolet.com/order-tracking.html to get basic info. For more detailed info, Becky is looking up internal GM info on your build status and target production date. What a sweetheart!! http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=31115

Is the VIN on the Z28s sequential like it was for the 2012 ZL1?
