Not sure I would want to order one. You typically have to put down a deposit when you do, which means you have a financial interest in a particular unit.

Of course, you are not fully committed until you sign on the dotted line, but whether or not the dealer lets you off the hook if you find the unit unacceptable on delivery is variable.

In contrast, if you find one on a dealer's lot, you can go over it yourself with a "fine tooth comb" even prior to PDI. If the dealer won't let you do that - walk out, and go to another dealer.

So, make the color combination a second priority; make the lack of defects the first priority.

Also, try to find a dealer with a good reputation for warranty service, as you will undoubtedly be visiting them in the future.

Buying an automobile is not quite as risky as they pretty much come built correctly from the factory these days; but a RV, not so much.
