Unless things have changed since I got my firestorm in September, dealers can't order them. I was told they're allocated a certain number of FR-S's based on their total sales volume and they can't specifically order a car. They are advised in advance of the car they're going to receive and when they're going to receive it but have no say in what color or transmission that car will have. In my case I got lucky. I called a dealer about 100 miles away and told him I was looking for a firestorm manual and he told me he had been notified that he would be receiving one in several weeks. I put a refundable deposit on it and when it came in I saw it, drove it and bought it. Perhaps because you work for them you have more of an inside track and they can possibly work out a swap with another dealer to get the one you want. Either way it's worth the wait. You'll love the car when you get it. Good luck.
