ETA = This week!

So I should be getting a call tomorrow letting me know the exact day of this week, but I'm so ecstatic! The dealership site says it arrives Wednesday, but the dealer said it might come earlier and to expect a call! It's all I been thinking about since I've ordered back in April.

Yeah ours comes in on Wednesday at 10 AM. They're making a big presentation of it delivering it at work (shh...it's a secret) and taking us out to dinner that night.

Are you a first 86er? It seems that even though a few FR-Ss arrived at the port last Monday (including mine), they are being held there and wont be released until we get closer to the 6/1 release date. Apparently the system the dealers use gives an automated ETA once the car hits the port and in this case it might be wrong.

It seems they are doing this so that all the dealers will will have them available at the same time.

This is what I heard from someone at Scion corporate, I hope he's wrong!

Yes, I have heard this from multiple dealers also. Although, as far as my dealer knows, they were supposed to have it in by yesterday but I still haven't received a call about my car.

No i am not, but apparenlty my car has been there since the first shipment of frs's was made. They were just waiting for corporate to release them to the dealers. I emailed my dealership again to clarify and im waiting for a reply.
