Only other, similarly optioned, in my color is about 300-400 miles north. Do I take the risk of them driving it down here and potentially screwing up the break-in of the new car (driving highway speed for a few hundred miles, etc.)? Or do I try to go for a different color, and see if they have anything?
Third option would be to wait and get one from factory, I guess, any idea how long that would take?
Thoughts?

If you place your order now. Factory build for this cycle is March, plus shipping time.
When you are that far behind invoice taking into account the dealer has to pay drivers, or shipping, plus rechecking the PDI to make sure the origional dealer completed it correctly, they are at a push.
Asking them to pay to ship a vehicle in for you at an expense to them, or screwing them at delivery as someone stated sounds like you don't want a relationship with this dealer for the long haul.
