I hear you. I'm not looking at the same car. I have 2 different trims ordered. I trust both dealers enough to contact me at the actual order time and tell me about conflict. By that time I'm either putting my wife's name on one of the contracts or anyone else's who chooses to take my pick. Simple as that.

BTW contact info doesn't give you anything. Its your ability to pay that matters. That is determined by credit score check at the point of contract or 'show me the money' option with/when final prices are known.

If that was the case - I could have given out bogus SSNs and potentially kick other people out of the line before the actual deal. Dealers are just protecting their pre-order statistics. SOA fulfills allocations - its a high demand car (or so we have been told). Pre-orders are vague enough for the car to be sold to anyone on the spot.
