I ordered mine today! When do you think it will be built? The dealer said mid-summer but it might be sooner since it's a V6 and most early orders are V8's. Will I get it before all you guys? :-]

"As much as we would like to accomplish the challenges provided in these posts, we must honor the dealer agreements and state laws that are in place that govern allocating products to dealers. To build just orders with “R6P” for the next two months (or for however long it would take) would put us in violation of these agreements and laws."
Where, the laws regarding automobile sales in the sovereign country of Zimunda? You gotta be kidding me! If they had started building pre-orders as actual, you know.....PRE-ORDERS, GM wouldn't be 3 months behind of lost time when they could have actually filled some of those dealer pre-order allocations! Alright, let us for a second assume what Fitzpatrick says is true, I think it would make him look even more believeable if he could actually explain and outline what these "laws" are. Perhaps that would put a lot of this speculation to rest. You just cannot manufacture a car, sell it as a pre-order and build it last. May as well just pack the dealer lots with a bunch of cars with various options and sell them first come, first serve. Oh, wait a minute...that is what is happening as we speak anyway so what hell is the difference?! |

"starting in June"... how nice. It would be nice if they had a timeframe to complete repairs on all the cars they have already built.

Automotive News shows 2399 cars built the week ending 5/2. In a 6 day work week that is 400 cars a day, or a full shift. They could be producing on Saturday already and it insn't made public. Do the math, moving forward for the weeks ending 5/9 thru 5/30, that rate equates to 9600 cars for the balance of May. If half the preorders are built now, it will take until the second to third week of June to complete them assuming that they are splitting the pre orders with dealer orders in the regular production cycle.

It also said that they were on track to meetthat goal. We will see. I had my Cyber gray ordered oct 13 but got bumped because of color restraint. My friend was second in line and his went from 1100 to 3400 in the last two weeks and as of Friday showed shipped. Mine went From 1100 to 3000 in one week( Last Week) and my dealer tells me if it follows the same schedule as my friends it should be built either this week or next. He feels cofident I will have itnear months end or first week in june. My concern is GM filing for Bankruptcy June 1...! If They File or are forced into filing Gm will most certainly need to shut all production lines until emerging from Bankruptcy. At least 6hat is what happened with Chrysler....because suplliers would no longer provide parts etc. So....Lets hope for at least being built before June1 or We may have another waiton there hands. If I can find the post on the early order thing I will atach it...It wa from aGM plant employee and I did hear thebsame thing from my Sales m anager. They areworking very hard to get pre orders out...I think they even added a weekend shift...I believe. |
