sounds legitimate - Richmond Hill Subaru said BRZs will arrive at their dealer on June 15 on their Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/RichmondHillSubaru

Got mine yesterday from Stampede Toyota. Sucks that it is so rainy here in CGY because it is already dirty!

Your early posts of the cars coming in to port only heightened the anticipation of the car for myself and others on this board. Just so you know, the wait is well worth it as the car will exceed your expectations.

Thanks to everyone who have made this buying experience so unique.

Thanks for the kind words. It's kinda funny that you ordered a month after I did yet you managed to get the car before I did.

I swear you guys out east got it lucky. I'm hoping very much so that the car is here today for me.

Still no news yet.

Great News guys!

I'm picking my car up today. They called yesterday and told me it will clear PDI today.

I can't wait now!! Once 1:30pm rolls around, I'll be out of work and driving my new Ultramarine FR-S.

I promise I will do so when I get a chance. Sadly today is raining outside so it won't be the best lighting conditions for the car.

But I will be taking photos of it as soon as I get the car. Including milage when I first get it.

Is it just me or is this day going by twice as slow as yesterday?

Congrats, folks! I am truly jealous, especially with the wait I am facing as something like #25 to place an order in Richmond.

And, to echo others: pics or it didn't happen!

I'm in Montreal and Toyota Gabriel has gotten 3 cars so far ( 1 Manual and 2 Automatics ) The only issue I have is that for some reason my car is still showing ' at port of entry'

WTF are you doing Toyota ??? RELEASE THE CARS !!!

Negative! I just picked my car up this afternoon from OpenRoad Toyota in the Richmond Automall. In general, their service was really good.

As requested, here are some pics I took today. Too bad it wasn't really sunny though.






Check this out!! Only 14KM's on the car when I drove it away. I got all the way up to 56KM's just driving it home and to pick up the GF.




I absolutely love this car. I'm still getting used to the stick but I'm feeling way more comfortable after driving it home. I even had a cab driver stop me at a red light and ask me what the heck it was. He loved it and congratulated me on picking it up. First one he's seen around town.

Again, this is a wicked car. I've been constantly going past the speed limit without even realizing it because it simply feels so good. It's been almost taunting me to go faster. Fastest I've been so far is about 120KPH on the highway in 6th gear all the while keeping the car below 4k rpms.

I'm surprised there's all this talk about front bumper drilling but none about dealership decal advertising.

I always thought dealer decaling was a thing of the past but it looks like Ben's car got hit with it. Does it look easy to remove?

[Blue FRS]

Looks good Ben cant wait to get mine.

Shit guys! I didn't even notice that until you guys pointed it out. I was going to remove the plate frames anyway, but now I want to remove the decal also.

I hope they didn't add the decal and then do my clear coat protectant. That would be a bitch to remove.

Thanks to all of you for the kind words.
