The answer to your question seems to be "it depends on the local dealer." I walked into my local Pontiac dealer 2 months ago and asked to be put on the Solstice list. The first salesman that I encountered had no idea what I was talking about :crazy !
Forunately, the manager on duty DID, but he said that their policy was not to start a list until they get official information about the car. He said that would probably not be until January or February; meanwhile, he could put me on a mailing list :rolleyes so that I would get information shortly after they (the dealer) did. Other folks here on the board are already on some kind of a list, and I guess they'll complete the details (interior/exterior colors, options) when their dealers get that info.
I'm cool with all this as long as the system works - you can bet that if I don't hear anything by the end of January, I'll be back in the showroom!
