Title says it all. Does anyone know when the exact date is that you can place an order for a 2012? Thanks in advance!

The most recent bulletin I saw stated the last Day to order a 2011 is May 25, so my guess would be you could place your request for a 2012 sometime soon after that date. This was a GM Canada bulletin to Fleet managers, however, I'm pretty sure it would be the same dates in the U.S. as well. Anticipated delivery could be as late as November, but, probably earlier, However this info could change next month, who knows.

Agreed......lease is up on my Equinox in June, and the dealer said I won't be able to order a 2011 then. I'll have to buy one off the lot, or extend the lease for a little while and order a 2012.

I'm not sure how long the delay is after they end the 2011 ordering though?????? Maybe a month or two at the most....

Everything ordered before May, 25 will come as a 2011. Once all the 2011 builds are done they will start on the 2012's. This is why you can get your 2012 delivery anytime between September and November. I was also told there is a month delay for 2011 HD Crew Cab's to BC because apparently the allotment for BC has been used up, so it looks like if you want an HD Crew Cab (At least in BC) it will most likely be a 2012. The only CC's you can get now are either on the lot or on their way.
