Allocation

If a dealer is aware he has been allocated an EVO should he be able to get the details on it? I really want to find out the color/roof/spoiler.

Thanks,
Mike

yes. The allocation tells the dealer how many cars they are getting, and what colors/options. All dealers have gotten 1st and possibly 2nd allocations by now, so if you're dealer doesn't have the allocation info, it means he's not getting any cars this time around.

My dealer has 2 for the first allocation.

Yellow / no roof and red / roof

I took the red.

His second allocation he has 1 white/no roof.

If your dealer doesn't know the color and option he was no alocated any evos as of yet and no gauranteed that they will have any. It's based on lancer sales.

Hope this helps.

More accurately, allocations were mostly based on each dealer's CSI rating. It's all about the Customer Service, baby!

Awesome Most mitsubishi dealership around where I live really sucks. I'm glad to hear they are not getting any cars!

There are still plenty of dealers who have not been allocated Evo's yet but will be getting them. Allocation, particularly for the first couple of months is wholly based on CSI, not Lancer sales BTW.

Our district manager said it also encompassed Lancer sales.
