I am one of the long wait guys (SN694). None of the Group 3 orders required a payment ahead of time. The group 1 orders (full pre-payment) and Group 2 orders($1500. pre-payment) were classified as such based on voluntary pre-payment and given priority in delivery as production caught up with demand.
