Brilliant move in my opinion.
Reminds me of me placing my order for the 2010 SS camaro during tue initial ordering period. At that time Many cool options were available with no pricing.

Ordered the car with headers, perf exhaust, short throw shifter etc..

GM waited a month any then announced that nearly every option I wanted would be available as an accessory but not from the factory and my car was immediately placed on constraint.

I was told that the RPO content at roll out was a marketing campaign to get as many confirmed orders as possible right away.
