Default RE: So who's placing their order on Monday December 3rd.?

I went to the Boston Auto Show last night. While talking to the booth bunnies, I found out they are telling people the "dealers" can order the car today 1 December 07. I was surprised by this because like most of us, I heard the 3 December date. Then she said, there will be so few cars that each dealer that wants one will order the car and who ever is first on "their" list will be able to have first refusals on 3 December 07 (esstially ordering the car). She went on to say, all the '08's are already sold (to dealers) and the general public will "order" the car from them.

This jives with something else I heard. Of all the '08's built, they will have a production number plague. So for instance, if the dealer is able to get a car, then, you, the "first" consumer, would not have a choice or chance of getting a specific production number car - even if you arrive at your dealreship at 0900 Easter Time on Monday. You will get whatever build number is being delivered to the dealreship.

BTW - the Concept Challenger still looks good, but I am gettign tired of seeing it. I want to see the production car - guess I will just have to wait till February. The rest of the show was just OK. There were only three cars at the show anyway, the Mustang, Challenger and camaro. I think I saw a Lambourgini there too, but it was obscured from my view by the big three. 8^)
