My salesman called me today to tell me got six allocations and I'm finally going past 1100. I don't know exactly when I can see it at 2000. He said the system has not updated since the factory went back to work. I ordered an A8.

Either your salesperson is blowing smoke or an awful lot of other salespeople are in the dark. Somehow my guess is the former.

And oh...I'd love to me wrong. I'm 1100 and waiting.

They sold 1100 Corvettes last year and he's the manager. I think they know the week before the orders go in how many they are going to get. It probably goes in this week and I still have constraint issue to get past but he says I'm good to go. I'll post went (and if) it goes to 2000

There is a HUGE difference from what you first posted and now what you are saying now.

1st post: "My salesman called me today to tell me got six allocations and I'm finally going past 1100"

Now: "...It probably goes in this week and I still have constraint issue to get past..."

Regardless, you are almost certainly dealing with 1 of 2 dealers and most would say they both are reputable.

So does anyone know for sure if there was an order cycle this week or is it next week? My salesman (he is the General Manager) is off today, so I can't check with him.
I also don't see any new constraints posted in the C7 General forum and I see conflicting posts here.

With the greatest possible respect, no dealer sold as many as 1100 Corvettes last year. I think what your guy meant to say was that they learned how many orders they will have next week. There was no Z06 order consensus this week, and if he told you different he is flat wrong.
