It's only one small data point, but my instinct is if the same dealer who got 5 allocations this previous roll out now gets 5 again, the fall roll out nationwide may be in the same order of magnitude as the summer roll out was. Still not a ramp-up, by any means, but not a ramp-down either.

I'm interested that dealers are telling people that November builds will get them a car in December. That seems pretty quick to me, given the experiences shared already on this board. I have an October build, and would consider myself fairly lucky to get the car stateside in December...
My car was done the 1st week of August and I'm picking up 9/19 from the Performance center. Had I picked it up from the dealer I'd already be driving it right now so its definitely doable. Being on the west coast hurts that time frame a bit though.
