Default Allocations today?

Anyone know if GM released any stingray allocations to dealers today? I can never figure out the cadence for the order cycle.

Thanks, I have seen that recently too but sometimes see it twice in a month. I have this schedule I found on the forum but I don't think it is what they are following. I've been the next to build car at my dealer for 1.5 months but as far as I can tell they did not receive any allocations last month. Its a large dealership that typically get 4 allocations each month. They said sometimes they get two allocation cycles in one month. Patience is a virtue.

Bomnin called me and said they have allocations coming this week, and my car should be on that list. I submitted my build at the end of March so I'm not so patiently waiting at this point.

I am in the exact same boat and had my order put in the middle of March. My dealer called me yesterday and said based on the consensus I should get an allocation this week too. I guess we will see next week.

Same there, I was called by my dealer and had my order put in by March 31st (I have been on the waitlist since Feb last year), order still in 1100 today. Have you guys heard back any update this week?

The order manager at my dealer said she would know tomorrow or latest Friday so I am still waiting. Allocations usually drop on Thursdays. I guess we will find out tomorrow.

I was also told it would be Thur/Fri of this week that I would hear something definitive, let's hope it happens.

Yes, here is the constraint report that a fine person on MECF posted. Partial constraints on non-Z-51. The allocation percentages this month were apparently excellent.

Does anyone know why it was so insanely low?

And where did you get those figures? Thank you.

Will next allocations not be until the 3rd Thursday of May?

Well, I didn't make the cut this time. Just talked to the dealer today (Bomnin) and was told that I should get in the next allocation which is June 1st, and if not, it will be a 2024 model. Can anyone confirm if those 2 things are true? The date and the last 23 allocation?

Thanks!

I have been told that June is the last order cycle for a MY23 Stingray but on what date that is I do not know. I have seen over the time two sets of allocations given in a month, but generally I think it is Monthly. That I am not sure of, it has been somewhat unpredictable. Good luck.
