A VIN is yours only when you sign papers, till then, its ANYONES car....your sales guy is just keeping an eye out for you and has your name on it, but he himself probably doesn't have a VIN yet.

Ya can't do that without a VIN, against DMV regulations. Your dealer won't get a VIN until its almost at his door. This is to keep things from getting "reserved" and give everyone a fair chance, but on the bulliten board in the back, they know what cars with what options are coming, so they usually put your name down on it so that no other sales guy sales your car when a VIN is established.
