Getting ready to buy...need tips, dealer experiences, cautions..

[sheag]

So I'm getting ready to buy my H2 and I'm nervous about the whole experience and what to expect. I live in Hawai'i, but I'm staying with friends in the Seattle-area for the primary purpose of test-driving and ordering/buying my Hummer here and then it will be shipped to Hawai'i. I've gone to a few dealerships and taken test drives. I've been treated better than I expected as I'm female and I didn't expect so many women to be buying the H2, but it turns out a lot of us are! I very naively expected that I was going to be able to buy one off the lot, but the inventory here is at most places extremely limited. I would really like a Sunset Orange with Adv Pkg and sunroof. I'm not excited about having to wait for a custom order, but I will if necessary. My concern is that several of the dealerships are selling these cars at more than a little above MSRP. Am I foolish to think that I should be able to get one for MSRP? I notice that on eBay many H2s are selling for MSRP and slightly under. Should I expect to pay a premium in order to get one off the lot if I find what I'm looking for?

Any experiences, advice, opinions welcome. Thanks, I've been lurking for some time and very much enjoy the conversations.
