The salesman then told me that he would be able to place the order this week. However, when I emailed him yesterday, he said he wasn't sure if he was going to be able to place the order this week either. Is this pretty normal? Thank you in advance for any insight or advice that you can give. I'm trying my best to be patient. I just don't want to wait any longer than I have to. They said it would be 6-8 weeks from the time they place the order. So I was expecting it around Xmas time, but the longer the order gets delayed, the longer I'll be waiting.


It's not really a matter of allocation, it's a constraint issue. That means the factory will only build a limited # of 2SS/1LE's in any given week. The # will vary. What your dealer needs to do is just make the order available and it may be picked up. If not, they can continue to try on a weekly basis or wait until they are allotted the 1LE constraint. I've had success with just making the order available, so hopefully yours will go through.

Hope that helps.

That helps a ton! Thank you. So I'm guessing/hoping my dealer knows to make the order available (like you suggested). I guess we'll find out. Lol. Thanks again!

Just found out they tried to see if they would take the order today, but they didn't. I'll have to wait till next Tuesday. I'm the 1st one of their list for this specific car, so he said it will happen "soon". "Soon" isn't quick enough. Lol. Good things come to those who wait, right?

If you do some reading through this thread, you could see that there is always the option to order through Beck, and have it delivered. It appears that she has quite the reputation and following, on this forum, so take that into consideration.

Becky, would you mind punching this guy ( VRGCFH) in today, to see if fate has smiled upon me yet?

Thanks for being such a sweetheart.

Just heard from the dealer. The order was taken today! About how long does it take to get a TPW? Also, once you get a TPW, about how long till delivery?

I had my TPW the next day. I ordered a 1LS 1LE, so the timeframe will probably be different, but my original TPW was just over 1 month from my initial order date. It has since been moved up 2 weeks, and should be completed this week.

As far as delivery, my dealer said to expect 1 to 2 weeks after its built, for the vehicle to be delivered. It sounds like it could take a little bit longer than that, if things don't gall in to place correctly.

Good luck with your order, and I hope you enjoy your new ride.
