With my current order status at Classic, it looks like my ride wont come in till after December 31st which means I'll lose the USAA rebate. I may have to start looking at vehicles on the ground elsewhere! The problem is, is that there aren't too many in DFW. So...I may have to start looking outside the metroplex.

I feel your pain big time and I completely agree about MSRP. I'm one who has NEVER paid MSRP so I relate to those thoughts entirely. I get GM employee pricing and even buying non-GM cars in the past, I have always paid well under MSRP.
Having said that, we all know this is a very hot item now and in huge demand, especially compared to the Mustang. Yes, demand will slow down, but buyers now can only do so much while the item is in huge demand. In that respect being able to buy it at MSRP such as at Classic is MUCH better than paying what some are elsewhere. It does help to have that no haggle price at a take it or leave it offer.
Tomorrow is my birthday and I "just" got my TPW of 10/19/09. About a week sooner than I was expecting. Hopefully, my signature will help you and others to see where you will fall down the line.
Also, I see that last batch of pictures didn't show the new rear parking assist sensors. I'm not sure if all the rear shots were of lower models, but I'm hoping to see the new look of the rear bumper on the next batch of cars that come in most likely.
