Allocations are based on the dealer's past history of selling (in this case) SS Camaros. Those that hardly ever sell them are granted few allocations in the future.

2) Chip supply or production shortages for certain critical parts. Since others have been getting 1LEs of late, I'd guess it's the PDR.

Thanks for the reply!

1. This is a large dealer in Toronto, Canada that has sold many Camaros. I factory ordered my 2018 1SS 1LE from them. So, it seems very unlikely they would not get allocation. Unless Canadian dealers in general are being short-changed on allocations, in favour of US dealers.

2. I asked my dealer specifically about the PDR, but was told that was not the issue.

It's possible they're not telling me everything, but I've had really good experiences with them. They even offered to let me hang on to my 2018 and they would honour the trade in value, even if it took months and months to get a 2022.

Anyway, it is what it is and I don't want to side-track this thread. Just trying to get some sense of when I might see my car.

Mine is a 2SS 6MT but no PDR, some other dealer installed options. It originally had the PDR on it but I dropped it since it had 0 availability when my dealer got an allocation. I’ll be picking up a garmin catalyst for it.

That’s not bad as to price. My 2021 2ss 1le I picked up in December 2020 was loaded, had wheel looks and navigation added only and about $1100 less on sticker. I did get the gm employee discount of $5000 so pulled the trigger , big deciding factor!

Definitely check over your car when you get it. Mine had a stain on the hood wrap. Probably water/salt from transport. A very light polish cleared it up. The dealer did not remove the front spring spacers and the alloy sport pedals weren’t installed.

Got it home yesterday while the temps were still 50F outside, right before the rain was supposed to start for the next big snow storm (rain, then freezing rain, then snow supposedly). Car stayed stock for about 2hrs before putting on my ZL1addons rock guards and dropping in my 1LE floor mats.

Thanks, this color is amazing in person. Really fits the 6th gen and 1LE package well.

Picked up my car on February 19, but haven't had a chance to post any pictures. Here are a couple.








Also added ACS Composite side rockers and rock guards as well as 1LE emblems.

LOL! Yeah, it doesn't look all that great, but it serves its purpose of protecting the front of the car on a trip.

Thanks! It's an awesome color! Even better in person.

It's a long story. Placed my order on December 10, 2021 with a local dealer. After 8 weeks they still didn't have an allocation so I started looking at in transit vehicles that were not pre-ordered. Found my car at a dealership about 250 miles away. The dealership let me put down a refundable deposit in case I got an allocation on my original order.

When the car arrived at the offloading rail facility about an hour from the dealership and I still didn't have an allocation on my original order I decided to cancel my original order and purchased the car in transit. The car arrived at the dealership on February 16 and I picked it up on February 19.
