Orders are automatically Priority 1 unless the dealer modifies. If a dealer has ten orders and does not modify all will be priority 1 and orders will be pulled in the order the dealer entered.

I am not the only one to have posted the answer to this question although it may well be I have posted this answer in the C7 section more than other members.

Since you're at 1100 I would say that your dealer doesn't have an allocation for you at this time and set the priority high as a tracking/filing measure.

When I ordered my car in November my Priority was set high by my salesman since I was waiting for constraint items. Once the constraints cleared in January and he had an allocation that fit my order he changed the Priority to a low number and the order was assigned the allocation and picked up to be built.

You should be more worried about if your dealer has any allocations at this point and if your order will even get built.

Then I would ask the dealer. Like i said, when my allocation was assigned to my order my priority was changed to a low number on Thursday and the order was finalized the following Monday night and I was at 3000 on that Wednesday.
