Waiting on my FR-S... delays at the NJ port

If anyone is waiting on a FR-S on the east coast, you may be waiting longer. I learned the port in New Jersey has delays on processing incoming vehicles. My FR-S has been at the port going on two weeks now.

I hope this doesn't last long... my BRZ is due into port on the 15th or the 18th. I was hoping for month-end delivery.

Should go over to the port and start beating up people for some answers.

I believe Toyota delivers cars to ports in California, Florida and New Jersey. Your car could be coming from Jacksonville, Florida.

I am beginning to think my car is coming through NJ as well... that or there are delays at the other ports as well. My car was suppose to be here 4/3, its now 4/10 and the dealer just told me he is trying to get his manager to call the port because the date in their system just keeps slipping

Did you ever get your car or are you still waiting bdub85?

They are having delays on all Scions for some reason. I never got an exact answer on why. My car was at the port for 2 weeks before they started processing it.

My car finally started processing Monday. I should have it early next week.

So what's the benefit if you order it as an employee? 30% discount?
