You should take the advice of others on here.
1. The car is at 3000 which means its not even scheduled to be built.
2. You should be able to cancel the order or change the order up until prior 3300...
3. I do not think by lining someone else up to buy a car that you do not want will help you by gaining leverage to get your deposit back.
4. Do you have anything in writing? Do they have your signature on anything?
5. You cannot sell or make a deal on something you do not even own.
Most people will realize this.
6. I think you will find your dealer more sympathetic if you simply tell them the truth, and tell them your current situation. They have trusted you up to this point which might lead them to order a MY 13' for you when you get ready for it.
7. Make it easy on yourself and not get a third party involved to take over your special ordered car. It will just make things more complicated for you and the third party, and the dealer.
8. IF the car DOES get shipped and delivered, the dealer will have no problem selling it but why let it go that far?
9. Did you pay cash or use a credit card? If you used a card go to your financing institution and they will reverse the charge for you.
10. The dealer can take your name off the order if he has someone in line, make all the changes to the order for the new customer, etc and allow the order to go through. That way the dealer does not lose credit for the allocation, or lose money via a penalty for not selling a sold order.

I wish you the best of luck with all this.
