On November 3rd the other system we can use, Order Configurator will be available. The end result is the same. Both systems can be used to create orders. There's no reason the Quick Order doesn't allow a sold order to be created, unless perhaps they didn't submit the customer name and address with it.

What you need to understand is that the dealer can create as many stock or sold orders as they want. The real factor is the allocation because any order created goes nowhere until it's placed against the allocation. So a dealer can have 50 ZL1 orders, and an allocation of 3. Only 3 cars are going to get built. This is the same process that the 2010 Coupe and 2011 Convertibles went through. Until the initial demand was eased up and then the sold orders could be submitted and processed with allocation.

There's going to be all sorts of stories about markups and dealers that lied to customer, same stories we've heard before. If anyone has questions, just ask them, someone here has been through it or knows the answer to it.
BECKY..... on the workbench there is a line entry called "PRIORITY"

What does it mean if it says "1"
What does it mean if it says "2"
This is a slot I think the dealer puts in.
