hopefully they'll have several cars similar to this so they will get built soon!! (and this was one of GM's early show cars-and Dave Hill's favorite color combo!!)
( and I'm a former buckeye)

Do you have a TPW(target production week)?
If not, then you won't have any idea when!

This will depend on how large your dealers allocation is how many orders your dealer has in front of you.

Just hung up the phone with my dealer. Turns out the performance axle is also on constraint and so I moved down from No. 2 to No. 3 in their order banks as I elected to pass on doing without it. With any luck GM will get it together to get me a car by January. So disappointed.

Deep down I know it is probably for the best as the options and accessories I want (performance axle, car cover, polished sill plates, 6-CD changer in the trunk, mesh gill inserts) will be better sorted in a few months but still. I will use this opportunity to see if I can get a personal look at Le Mans Blue Metallic to see if I want to change my current order for Silver.

Siiiiigh...

[QUOTE=Bwright] too.

My dealer informed me that it was the same 30% national constraint as the week before, that is, only 30% of each dealer's allotment will be sold with the G90. But since I've been checking to see if there's a dealer posting in the forum with an full update since production began, and I haven't, we're only getting bits and pieces of the story.
