What is Peninsula's allocation? Chaplins is 18 for 2012.

Something like six I think. Pretty sure they are sold out or at most have one left.

Is yours a manual or auto? When did you order?

SOA Call Yesterday

Yesterday I spoke with SOA, and while they could confirm my order for a DGM Ltd w/6MT, they could not give any other specific info. However, their last comment was that it should take longer than 14-16 weeks from my order date. Anyone else hear this timing from SOA?

When did you order it? It is typical for some new cars to take at least this to be built and shipped over seas, so this number does not sound off. Most of us have been waiting longer than that just to hear when we MIGHT be getting the car.

what what!!!!? Good for you guys.

Called again this morning and nothing! They just verified that my VON is valid but no VIN attached as of yet. #1 at Chaplins, supposedly #2 biggest allocation in WA.

.....I'll call again on Friday to see if there are any updates.

Yes, #1 of 7 allocated.
Upon stalking another thread, we both ordered at the same dealer! Beechmont Subaru from Paul. I'm #3 in line with a black MT premium- ordered on 4/28. He said mid July at the latest for mine, but I hope its sooner. It's gonna suck if the allocation of 7 is spaced evenly between now and the end of the year.

I had the same concerns but when I talked to a SoA rep, he told me that on previous car launches, the initial batches were front loaded for the most part.

Do you have to call SOA to get an update or can you look in the ordering system and see the status?

Your dealer has access to the same info Subaru phone reps have.
