I guess we'll have 2 identical cars coming in at the same time. I am opting for the Premium stereo as well, for my MT Firestorm.

So my current expectation is not this week but next, which ties into what you were told.

Oh well, another week of vicariously living through other folks' posts.

I still have a BRZ and an FRS on order. Ottos Subaru said if I don't want it they will happily refund my money. They are back ordered until January of next year.

Both are white. Honestly, I'm so frustrated with waiting that I'll probably buy the first one that gets here. Both are white.

Too late, its mine.
There was a second one that was supposed to be delivered at the same time, but only 1 arrived on the truck. The rep figured he might get another delivery today with more cars and the other FR-S, but not sure how accurate the deliveries are.

I would check with Mendes, perhaps a truck arrived there too.

I also spotted a blue BRZ on a carrier heading east on Walkley, no idea which ramp he was taking though (to Ottawa or Montreal?).

Congratulations! That's a pretty 'slick' colour, so to speak.

Since you'll have it by Friday, I'll bet you will cover lots of fun-filled km over the weekend. The weather looks perfect for enjoying a new toy.

Do you have any plans to take it to 'Bogie or Shannonville sometime?

Yep, Calabogie next Friday! MCO has a lapping day, will be great to test out the car on the track.

That's great. I'll look out for you as well and you can hop in with me for some laps.

Nope... Came in Wed and earliest they could deliver was Tuesday... Was okay since I had to go away for the weekend anyways. Would have been sad having it sit in the garage waiting for me.

Tomorrow 9am. "One more sleep!" as my son says.

Enjoy the day tomorrow. Pretty exciting stuff. Mine is just past break in and the increased RPM's make the car even more fun than it already is. Had a blast with a Mustang GT and Genesis 3.8L yesterday coming home from Calabogie.
