mlee, just to clarify again:

I have been talking with my local dealer (literally right down the street) for 2 weeks, they have offered me their lone 2012 allocation at MSRP. I accepted yesterday morning, was going to go in last night and go through the order. My sales guy emailed me before I showed up and said he was just firing up the system to get ready for me to show up and saw that nothing was "Live". There was no pricing or anything, and you could fill out an order, but once again, it isn't really "live". He suggested not to waste my night coming in and he would call me after finding out what was up. He assured me that he has spoken with the owner and informed him that their one allocation is taken and that no one else promises it.

So, what he is telling me is basically what you are saying? Don't worry, wait till it's "live" and then go in and fill it out? My sales guy said he would prefer to do it when pricing and all is in place and he can do the official order on the spot and I can walk out with a packet of a final deal with final sales numbers.

P.S. Long time lurker/reader here, just registered with the anticipation of ordering the ZL1.
