CLK 320 problems

hi

i just placed an order on a clk320 2 weeks ago and today i called my dealer to check the status of my car

my dealer said he didn't have my car production date yet but he said he would get more allocation soon

what does he mean by he will get more allocation soon?i dont quite understand it

and isnt it strange?

he should have had my car production date already right?beacuse it's been 2 weeks since i ordered mny car...shouldnt he have the production date already?

what does it mean?

does it mean i still have to wait like 3 more months before i receive my car??

any help would be much appreciated
thanks

3 months sounds right. For the E its around 2.5 right now, depending on the dealer.

Allocation

I believe what he meant about allocation is the extra "slots" for his dealer to receive the cars according to the different production dates. Dealers usually get a certain number of slots that they fill once someone placed an order. If all the slots are gone, they would have to request for more. Hence it would take longer to get your CLK.
