I have to admit that Honda does it differently than I have experienced in the past when ordering a new car. In April, I signed a purchase agreement for an E with all the options spelled out. I gave a deposit, and the dealer then was able to request the car I wanted in his next allotment. The salesperson was able to track the car and even gave me a VIN the day it was made (on the 18th). He called me today and let me know that it had arrived and the dealer installed options would be finished on Monday, and I could pick it up then. Hooray!
With other manufacturers, I've actually ordered a car and the window sticker that comes with it has a "Made especially for...." part to it.
You might go to the "Ask the Dealer" thread, and ask Supaman for the specifics. He's been very helpful.
Best of luck,
