Dealer trends at launch?

So I got a chance to test drive both an AT and MT FRs last night. Awesome car, but after talking to them, it seems to me that they were doing away with the whole waitlist thing. The dealer literally said "we had a wait list, now it is first come first serve." i had an opportunity to literally buy a car someone may have placed a deposit for already. They aren't charging markups, but shady tactics nonetheless...dealer is Wondries in Alhambra.

If there is no deposit there is no "wait list".

Key word is "had" that could mean they did have a wait list but already supplied those people with their cars and the list is done. Now it's just whoever walks in and wants what they have, gets it.
