Order go in en masse then Chevy starts picking for production. It can get complex, but some guideline. Chevy pulls order based on previous year orders, so two order last November will translate to two pulled orders this November. It will not be that simple because twice or more as many will be built each month than were the same month this previous year, but you get the point. All ten allocations may be ordered but it will take a few months for all ten to be built. The same for a dealer allocated one hundred just the numbers will be different.

yup...


these initial allocations should cover the first 6 months of production. so figure the # of coupes they received divided by 6 is how many they'll be able to push through monthly on avg.
