Doesn't seem to be anymore. As I said under Tucka


ordering from the factory doesn't seem to be a thing anymore. All the dealers I've talked to have said all they can do is work out a dealer-to-dealer trade if you want a specific option or color that they don't have.

But if what you want isn't already on a lot somewhere, then you can't get it.

For the Civic Si I've been looking at, I think there are maybe 3 or 4 of them total within 500 miles of me, none are within 100 miles, and every one of them is white (ugh, I HATE white cars).

If I told every local dealership "here is a check for $25,000 for the first one who can find me the car I'm looking for" I'd still have to wait weeks or months.
