I'm hesitant to preorder because it puts you at a serious disadvantage as far as trade-in value and other things if they already have $500 of your dollars.

I have bought a number of new cars over the years, and never once have I put any money down to order the car. Never even been asked. My dad put down a couple grand deposit on a GT500, but somebody came in later and put down $5k and my dad was told to pony up more money to get the first GT500 to arrive. I thought that was terrible, and he did to. He got a Shelby GT instead. The idea of putting money down before the car arrives is something I don't like. The order has your name on it. Leave the money in the bank to gain interest is what I would do.
