Order and Allocation Question - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I ordered my 1SS Silver Ice w/black rally stripes, RS pkg and auto last week. The dealer said he had 4 allocations left when I ordered so I am wondering where that might put me on the wait list.

He said they initially had 10 allocations. which means I was order number 7. I bought it from Heritage Chevrolet in Chester, VA with the military discount and -750.00 for USAA.

I had to order the car 100 miles away because the dealers here in Virginia Beach and Norfolk area feel they need to charge the market adjustment/robbery fee.

Thanks in advance.

Can't say for sure, but if he is being truthful you could be at status code 3000 by Thursday. Most likely at least 5 of his other allocated cars are at 3000 or better. If you don't understand these numbers(status event codes) I listed, there is a thread that explains them.

I appreciate the fast response. I knew going in that it might be awhile..... I should have ordered sooner but I could not bring myself to pay a maket adjustment.

He offered me a 2SS that was further in production (customer cancelled) but I couldn't get the discounts so I passed on that but I have my order number NKGPHP and hopefully with the extra push in production I will drive it this summer.
