So am I SCREWED?

Ok I went on the 14th and my dealer what I wanted for the 2SS and said order it. So I keep checking back and they have not placed the order yet since they are waiting for a pull or something from GM on the first one they ordered. It was for a guy that 2 years ago said he wanted the car. Anyway they do not want to chance guy #2 or my car #3 that they have orders for coming before this guys.

My lease is up on April 15th and if 11-15k worth of cars have already been sold then I think I am screwed and will not get a car before then.

What do you guys think? I have checked other dealers and I would be like #8 or higher for them. So what do you think?

I think it will be the package you order and not your place in line that will determine when your Camaro is built.

If the dealer tried to contact him and he doesnt respond in two weeks, he should get skipped. Snooze you lose. Sounds like bs, how long do they plan to wait? I would find another dealer that will put your order in the system.

I would have it out with those guys a the dealer. They are so concerned about one guy then every one should just pull there orders and let this guy suport the entier dealer ship. Plus if you have already given them the money I dont think they can leagaly hold back on your order sence the guy has not paid them yet.

did you get your confirmation code? my dealer said the initial orders won't be dropped until december. my lease is also up in may, and i'm 4th . if you have to make another months payment, it's not fatal in the scheme of things.

What's the dealers allotment? I've been told that their cars will be delivered at intervals so depending on their allotment it's possible that even if they give up on the guy and order #2 becomes number 1 and you become #2 that you may not get the car until after April.

The dealer can put the orders in the system and manually change the priority, So there is NO reason he should not put your order in.

EDIT: ooops...skipped some posts and see what happens!
