SBR is diligently working with its supply chain so production can reach capacity levels by the end of June. We are planning for strong and consistent vehicle allocations the last five months of the year.

Planning to be back at full production by end of June...
Anyone know if Subaru dealers can still order 2020 cars to spec, or will they just get what the factory makes and they /will/ like it?

I was emailing around this friday/today with dealers and I got lots of differing answers from sales people. From "We can have what you want in 8 weeks from Japan" to "Orders are suspended through this model year, I can't get any more cars".

Not unusual from sales people - either mis-informed or saying what they think will benefit them the most.

Anyone know the actual situation?
