Here's my story
Placed order on 28Aug'13 - Order accepted and Order Number generated.
On 10/15 GM (eMail) stated "... Order has been placed by your dealer and accepted by Chevrolet ....... a TPW has not been established for this order..." i.e. Order status 2000
On 10/18 dealer eMailed me " Your order is ... in Status 1100."
So it appears that since Z51 was on constraint my dealer withdrew the order and used the allocation for a different order that did not have Z51.
So if, as I understand how allocations work, if some number of Z51 allocations become available to my dealer - my order will not get one because GM has not accepted the order.
Think I'll try to find another dealer who will handle it on a first come- first served" basis.
Yep I know that I'll be giving up the 50 days-a-waiting I have invested but it appears I have done so already. The dealer withdrew the order so I have lost all the time until he gets around to resubmitting it to GM.
And it's not a case of not using a allocation as my dealer sent me of list of all the C7s coming in and 30% are "sold" to the Marketing Manager and he did ask if I might want one of the "Stock" units he has coming in.
