Does anyone know if the new MacBook Pro with the Touch Bar is available to look at in the Apple Store? (As of today - November 13 - possibly?)

Not avail yet. Not a smart move on the part of Apple, thought they learned their lesson with the disastrous Watch launch and most recently the NON availablility of the 7+

Nothing separates the consumer from the seller faster than unavailable product

I'm not clear on if you meant it's not available to buy or demo the MacBook. I'm looking to demo it.

Maybe those consumers should pay attention! At it's late october event, Apple clearly stated the MacBook Pro with touchbar will ship in two to three weeks. And they are still on schedule.

The OP was asking when they would be in stores to demo. While the pre-orders are on track to ship in 2-3 weeks (if you ordered in the first couple days) that does not mean they will be available in stores. I've asked at a couple of Apple Stores in my area and they have no idea when they will be available for demo or purchase.

So true. I was so down for getting a new 7+ but due to unavailability (Not because I couldn't afford it) I have renewed interest in my 6s and for the first time since the introduction of the original iPhone, have gone without upgrade...Might just be an every other version upgrade. That all came about from basically looking for a ghost (7+) for well over a month before finally called it. Thanks , it's the first time you've SAVED me money.

Ordered the BTO maxed out RMBP 15" and will see just how good this revision is coming off an Early 2011 MBP (I'm just now going Retina!) even with Touch Bar (which I don't have tons of interest in but hope it won't be just a gimmick) before deciding if I am keeping or going back to 2011.

They should be in stores now, or arriving soon if your local store doesn't have one yet. The store I visited in Atlanta yesterday had demos available, and even a limited quantity for sale as well. Picked up this 15" just before lunch on Thursday (yesterday):
