You will see thousands of people doing that very thing just to be one of the first to put one in their driveway. And you will be hard pressed to find any dealer offering one the first 6 months of production without a markup. I'm not saying there won't be folks getting them at MSRP during that time, but they will be the rare exception, not the rule.

Yeah I know, just a little exaggeration for effect
