Prepare to pay hefty markups on MSRP from this dealer if you want either carbon fiber package…

For what it’s worth, I was told allocations accepted today would be delivered in Feb. So maybe you’re closer than you think? G’luck.

Two allocations finally opened up for me today with my #1 color choice Drift, which has been super constrained…. but now Carbon 2 is constrained. Arrrrrgh. Hoping that’s not the new norm and just a function of production restarting, supply needing to catch back up. Rodeo continues.

They can be ordered on BW. But not through most dealers. Seems only to be through larger BW dealers. I know of multiple 5BW orders in Typhoon and one in Drift that are at the 3000 stage. (Same with the V8V Precision Package, by the way)

Sent you a DM about this, by the way.

All I know is that out of the dozen local Caddy dealers I have orders in with, none have been able to get allocations with the new colors. None are high volume BW dealers. Combined, they have gotten about a half dozen 5BW allocations in the last month or so. I passed on all because none had...

It’s in a state that starts with the letter D.

I hear ya, but with all the subpar paint reports I’ve read on here, I’d really hate to fly in, find a mess of a paint job, and then deal with haggling with the dealer. I’d also be at their mercy for proper ppf, rather than just using my trusted local guy. I’m not in a huge rush, winter is...

Yes, I understand that. What I was pointing out here is that it seems that the 2025 new colors are being saved for the high volume BW dealers. I assume it’s a reward for their historical sales performance. “New” typically means higher demand.

Well, I’m not sure it was a straight up lie, I think there’s some strange stuff going on with GM and new paint colors right now. GM seems to be reserving 5BW allocations with new colors for high volume dealers only. New colors are indeed inbound on built cars, but not to low volume BW dealers...

I have my 6 digit order and the bot has consistently said that my order has been entered by my dealer but not accepted by GM yet, been 2 weeks. Dealer claims to be baffled on why and has run it up the ladder to their rep. So my only choices here are to wait or cut bait? Nothing on the build...

So that’s my only option here to confirm if there was an allocation or not attached to this order: assume I am being lied to if it’s been more than a week? I have the build sheet from the order. Is there anything on there to determine if it’s attached to an allocation?

So how can you tell if there was or was not an allocation? Dealer claims the order is attached to an allocation, despite still not being picked up by GM.

So what’s normal lead time from placing an order via an allocation and GM actually accepting the order?

In all my years of buying luxury cars, I’ve never heard of a new car dealer offering anything below MSRP for a special order car. Why would they? You want something special, they have the pricing leverage. Now, if the car is already on the lot, then you have the leverage, as they own the note...

5v

An allocation finally became available with Drift Metallic. Jumped on it today. The wait begins!

I checked out two 4s this past weekend in Drift, have a 5 order pending allocation in that color. One car was outside on an overcast day, the other was on the showroom floor. Seeing it in person didn't change my mind, but I wondered how much metallic you see in direct sunshine? In shadow, the...

My understanding of constraints is that they are not necessarily all or nothing. For example, all 2025 new colors are on constraint, but some colors more than others. I was able to get a Typhoon allocation, but not a Drift…yet. Some allocations will allow Drift. Same with the V8V package. So...

Drift Metallic color.
