My dealer told me he had an allocation and would order me a car. He had already known that he could place and order. He told me that the allocations were earned based on sales performance and numbers in set time periods.
I can not believe there are dealers out there that would lie to a customer by taking an order and hope things would change with their ability to earn an allocation. Do they think the manufacturer will feel sorry for them and let them have it. It was very clearly outlined. These are very special cars and the manufacturer wants to reward the successful dealers with the ability to offer these cars.
If I was looking to start the process over, I would ask the dealer ( management or owner) if they had an allocation or not. Its yes or no and they know for certain if they have earned one or not. It is really not rocket science as to why most people hate to purchase cars.
