About time

After weeks of consistently being told a different delivery date, my FRS is now apparently inbound by the end of the week. Fingers crossed that this time it's true :/

When you drive it off the lot it will be worth the wait. When you complete the break in and reach 1,000 miles, it will REALLY be worth the wait!

I honestly don't get why people are having to wait so long to get their cars.....I went in, test drove, said i wanted orange they said come back in the morning, came back the next day saw my car rolling off the truck, did paperwork and waited 3 hours for the initial inspection and cleaning and drove it home. I am confused. EVERY dealership around me has at LEAST 3 FR-S's on the lot, mine has a Firestorm MT an Asphalt MT and a Raven AT.

I ordered mine on July 13th and didn't really get a solid date until about a month after; apparently though, it was an issue with personnel that was quickly "rectified" with a replacement of said person, and then my order was "expedited". Still took about 2 weeks after that for there to be any solid update. However, after I got a text with a picture saying it's on the rail, it was in the compound less than a week after that. Then last week I was told it was supposed to be at the dealer on the 23rd. My guy said to give him a day or 2 to get it ready and then I get to pick it up on the 25th! That's next Saturday, at about noonish and then I'll spend the rest of the day cruisin' around!!

One more week for mine after an extra 10-day delay. I was supposed to take deliver last Friday. I'm so anxious for next Monday!

I know I can't speak for you but an extra few weeks of waiting would be more than worth it for me. I plan on having this car for years so a few weeks is nothing compared to that. If i got a GTI instead of my FRS I would have regretted it for as long as i had the car.
