Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems each allocation is tied to a specific build week. So your dealer must know your allocation is build week 2 or 3 allowing for a week or two delivery time to dealer.

I think a lot of times is luck of the draw where a dealer may already have a car ordered for inventory that matches your order so you get it a lot faster. Or, more likely, the dealer has a car ordered for stock, still in 112 status, and when you place your order they modify that existing stock order and then you get your car in 4 weeks or less.

I'm looking at 10 weeks for production and probably 12 to 14 weeks for delivery since I'm opting for the performance delivery.
