Seems like dealers won't be getting too many cars. Does that mean they won't be a leasing option with this car?

Thank you for the recap. Thats great news. It's tough to keep up on some of the 1st hand accounts as they get lost in the noise.

Dont know how much of this is old hat but here's what I heard. Just got back from the Gillman Dealer in Houston. He said there will be 21 cars allocated to each Houston dealer for this year (which means 63 cars total for Houston). They also mentioned they will get approximately 3 orders each month. Last he handed me a printed brochure which I will scan soon. Nothing new except it has EPA mileage on it which I haven't seen before

Manual Gearbox is 22/30 mpg
Auto box gets 25/34 mpg

He told me I could order Thursday March 1st. Since I am 5th-6th in line my car should be here June/July. Yes I am stoked

Don't bother scanning. It has been posted here twice already.

Gillman Subaru Southwest? I just put down a deposit with them as well... He told me I was 16th on the list. When did you put down your deposit?

Now that's more like it. Those figures make sense.
