Then my wife decided to go back mid December to put the deposit down as a surprise for our anniversary. And a month later the dealership called and said Subaru had cancelled the order, because they had oversold the year's production run.

Then I heard orders were open again, I went last week to put a deposit down again, and just got a call yesterday that the order had gone through. (For some reason this dealership puts in their orders on around the 10th of the month, not immediately). They say 8-10 weeks for delivery, but that's just based on they usual delivery times. I'd love to get it by the end of August, but I have a feeling I'll be waiting until late October, which is when the 2022s began delivery.

I'm getting a Limited Ignition Red with Manual. Just the dome light upgrade (yes I could have done it myself) and Homelink/auto dim mirror as extras, and MSRP.
I think you're the only person who has been quoted such a quick delivery date. I ordered 2.5 weeks ago and was told Aug-Sept, most have have been told Sept or later. I would be shocked if it's actually here in August.

'22s didn't get here until October, but ordering didn't open until late August/early September IIRC. So let's just hope that bodes well for us!
