Just got my allocation two days ago for week 42. Woot! My dealer is a small dealer and so far they've gotten 1 allocation per quarter, this being their second.

as predicted, PM sent

Just got an allocation too but actually gave it to a friend of mine as I just got a GT4 a month ago because it fell into my lap. The M2 is gonna be a heck of a car but the GT4 is on another level!

Just got an allocation call.... It's lit!

cbmmm3 · 09-14-2016, 10:36 AM

WaHoo ! Just got my allocation call too. Will head to dealer today to finalize.

CONGRATS! Do you mind me asking where in Michigan? I am in metro Detroit. Trying to get a feel on how many cars the local dealers are being allocated. I'm on a waiting list with two dealers.

cbmmm3 · 09-14-2016, 12:05 PM

Im in West Michigan. Did you know that in the first round of allocations ( July Aug Sept ) the State of Michigan received a grand whopping total of 4 allocations. Four !!! That blows. 2 for the east side and 2 for the west side of the state.
Hopefully, its our state's turn this allocation round. My $.02 is that the Detroit area will see 6-8 allocations this time and outstate 3-4.
Hope you are one of the lucky !!
Of course getting an M2 in winter does not do us much good - other than the ability for Lovin Touchin Squeezin.

Yes it is. And it should be, for the price you undoubtedly paid for it

I was not aware of that. Talk about disheartening. I agree ... I don't want her until the Spring/Summer and I hope your two cents is on the money.

97 cars Oct/Nov/Dec vs 516 cars July/Aug/Sept

Looks like a massive ramp-up....said no one.

That's because they all know that production is " unlimited "

I'll just hold onto this for a few more days until we know the real number....

Keep on holding !

Still this is less than 2 cars per month ...

There are definitely going to be dealers that have spots open each month. Many dealers don't actually keep a list.

The dealer in question had a list, but I was the only person on it. Got on the list last month and got the allocation yesterday. I gave the dealer info to two people, one of whom (TucErDoc) has already placed an order and has a production number now.

Dealers like this exist, but they are rare. Unicorns.

That's for sure! ?

My dealer got 3 allocations, as promised, same as last quarter. After waiting since October 2015 I'm getting one! Waiting to hear which month.

How do you go about getting that email/screen shot on line? All I got was this crappy typed doc.

I moved up to #13 on the waiting list! When I put my deposit down in June, I was #24, so looks like we're doing good for allocations in Hawaii.
