After pulling my deposit over a year ago (doh!), I'm back onboard to get an Elise. I just put a deposit in with Greenwich today, somewhere around #97. Pretty high, but I'm OK as I want my car next April or so (no need to leave it in the garage all winter). Anyone know if the other local dealers may have shorter lines? I'm not interested in paying over MSRP. Ideas which dealers will be getting higher allocations?

Thanks,
Paul

As far as allocation numbers, the dealer should know but it can be hard to get a real number

Even with this information, actual delivery date for any car is a mystery.

I would leave my deposit with HRM in Greenwich. IF allocation is still based on past Lotus sales, they should have a high allocation, and they are Lotus enthusiasts as well...

Yep, I went with Greenwich. Valenti wants $1k over MSRP, which I find unpleasant. I did check out the deposit list, but the local dealers are way over those numbers (Valenti was around 65, Brighton is around 80). If I can get a car early next spring I'll be very happy indeed.

Thanks,
Paul
