Your call, though.

I tried for a discount on the 2024, and it doesn't have the Thermal Air Collar which was important to me, and they have 2 people before me who are waiting for allocation. In the end the 2025 is cheaper for me.

I hear ya…

Just be prepared to wait.

Most dealers are terrible at managing lists and allocations.

Back in December 2021 I called for about 6 weeks. Calling dealerships all over east coast. I really wanted the car for the summer so that was my motivation.

I end up calling a dealer in West Virginia. Some how this manager had information on who had allocations and how many.

By absolute luck a dealer in my state Connecticut had 2 allocations. I damn near hung up on the guy to call.

When I called person who answered said we had two now we have one and I got the one.

Picked up the car in May 2022!

Car is and has been absolutely phenomenal.

All the best with your journey!

My opinion, FROZEN 🥶 all the way!

That being said, the Chalk still being individual, the red interior, the carbon pack, looks like it's very well optioned, I'd go with that 100%.

The issue with this particular situation, is finding a collision center that you can trust, and, knows what they’re doing.

There’s always room for negotiation, Just takes time and patience.

Absolutely, I had to wait about a year and a half to get exactly what I wanted, and it was well worth the wait
