My wife and I stopped by ours on Saturday, and pretty much did the same as you did (go figure), and I asked him specifically about the Imperial Blue Metallic and the Golden Teal Metallic. He said that he added me to the call list (right behind the person who ordered the car), so we can come down and take a look at it.
It's good to have friends working at a Chevrolet Dealership.
I stopped by the Chevrolet dealer where I purchased my car today to talk about several things regarding my car and HHR's in general. I asked them when they might be getting one in and if they had any literature they could share with me. They said they had already ordered two (one with cloth and one with leather) and they should be arriving in the next 3-4 weeks. I will be giving them a call in about 3 weeks to find out status of delivery and will go take some photos when it arrives.
The also gave me some info they had received from Chevrolet which tells more about the package, what it entails, production numbers and suggested MSRP. I have scanned it and uploaded it to my website HERE
Sounds like it's going to be a pretty cool package and not a bad price. Let me know what you think. I don't remember seeing this info anywhere else, so I hope it's helpful and sheds some light on what we should be expecting.

My dealer has the other two colors sitting there on their lot, or they did on Sunday when I saw them listed on their site. I told my saleman when I was there that day to call me when anything new comes in. He said, no problem...he loves seeing my HHR and always interested to see what's new on it. 
He's gonna be in for a big surprise next time...I've got 4 of 5 mods in the works as we speak.

They are currently in production, so I would venture to guess that all available parts are set aside for those for now. Once they are actually released to the dealers, the parts may be available. However, they are only making 4000 of them, so that could limit part availability as well.

Was at my dealer yesterday, while doing some other running around. Took the 07' Fall Edition for a spin, for about 15 minutes.
Nothing new, except what they call Black Chrome, slightly redesigned tire wheel, and different upholstery.
Frankly, don't like it. The "black chrome" doesn't look like black chrome, at all. Looks more like Michigan winter weather road film...kind of salty, dirty grimey chrome. You really have a hard time seeing it as black, if your 10 feet away.
The car also has a stripe down the side that has a slight arrow shape to it. The stripe is in tape that is the dark metallic grey color.
I guess , as a positive, the 2 tone interior is kind of nice...and stands out better than the monocolor of existing models.
Just my opinion....by I don't think it is work the $900+ difference over the 2lt.

Called the dealer where I bought "Smoke" to ask if the Fall Edition HHR had arrived and my salesman said he had one with leather. So I hopped in "Smoke" and went up to check it out. When I got there, Jeff (my salesman) told me where I could find it and wanted to see what I had done since my last visit. Opened the hood and showed him the painted CGS and fuse covers which he thought looked terrific. He said..."Deb, you're turning this into one cool ride." (well, he said something else, but since this is a family site, cool will work) 
I also showed him "Mini-Smoke" and he said I've seen those before, but never orange...I suppose you painted that too. I assured him that I had not done it, but that a friend of mine online named Karen had got it off eBay which he thought was very cool.
The Fall Edition is very nice...but I wasn't all that impressed with the "Black Chrome"...it's more of a smoky chrome look in my opinion. I looks great, just not what I was expecting. The pinstripe work is very nice and looks great. The mirrors are a painted shiny black like the car and the wheels are much different than the ones I've seen on other HHR's. The headlights also have a smoky film on them and they don't seem to stand out as much as they do on a regular HHR. All in all, it's very nicely done...but not all it's cracked up to be in my opinion. Here's some of the photos I took.
