Careful with that. When you have the dealer order from the factory when that particular units shows up......thats your unit. If it arrives and is a hastily assembled POS then that opens up a whole can of worms. First off its probably going to take between 6 to 10 weeks or longer. If it arrives, is built like ****, and you decide not to accept it, then you are at square one. Either let them attempt repairs before you own it, or reject it and start over by having them order another from the factory essentially resetting the clock. Believe me it can happen.
It is much better to find an "in stock" unit on the lot where you can go over it with a fine tooth comb before committing.

P.S. If you do have a dealer order from the factory they are most likely going to want some type of deposit. Make sure its refundable should the above happen and make sure you get that in writing signed off on by the general manager or owner, not the salesman.
Don't be afraid to special order, to get the exact unit you want. In the colors you want, equipped the way you want.
You will have an opportunity to inspect a factory ordered unit
