My dealer here in San Diego received info on their "allocation" from Nissan on the 10th. My understanding is that during this mid month period dealers are able to configure cars going in to production in April, within certain limits, if they have buyers. They called and said they could configure a car with my choices if I put a deposit down, which I did today. The schedule calls for production in April, delivery target is May 10th. It sounds like Nissan is being really tough to deal with. They are being restrictive in what they will produce and ship in an effort to reduce manufacturing costs, so the dealer says. I will miss out on Robert's VPP program - that's a bummer. He gave me a number but we could not find a car anywhere. The dealer had no problem at all with a VPP sale.
If you miss this "allocation" period, you have to wait until next month, as I understand it. Nissan doesn't make this process easy!
