Hey Rabble..Yes, i did talk to champion scion toyota\scion. If i remember correctly they share the same building\sales.
When i spoke to them, there was one person on the list. Myself and my buddy were #2 and #3. Maybe I should to call them and confirm.

I went to Charles maund and they told me it would be first come first serve, no pre orders accepted.

Yeah that's what they said when I called them up, he seemed confuse when I told him I had a right of first refusal agreement.

I'm on the list at Champion Scion. I've been talking to Jim Lee over e-mail. Who have you guys been talking to at Champion? Also, luxmn, have they told you anything about your First 86 car yet? I keep asking them for info but they say they have none yet.

[luxmn]

they havent called me yet. ill give them til next week. ive been talking to John the manager, honestly they're nice but not as proactive. i try not to think about the car way too often so i can hang on a little longer

i think they do that so they can set the price (above MSRP) depends on the demand, i don't have problem w pp making money but that's technique is not classy in my book. Champion toyota manager said my FR-S will be at MSRP. (they better keep their words)

[tripjammer]

Paying over MSRP for a FR-S? Get out of here. There will be plenty of these cars to go around.

[luxmn]

Yeah no way, if they want to make money, learn about the car faster than I do, care for the car better than I do, don't nickle and dime me during my 2 year complimentary service than I'll pay them to take care of my car years to come. Dealers nowaday is so much about immediate gain its messed up

[garsh0p]

Any Austin guys hear anything from their dealers yet?

[luxmn]

i bugged John (manager at Champion) yesterday saying that a lucky 86'er already got his car. he promised to look hard into the inventory log to find any clues. i try not to get too worked up about it lol.

[bigsolo]

I hope I can still get this car, hard times right now.

[Rabble]

Hey lux, I just got a call from champion saying your car is going to be in their showroom Monday.

Congrats man.
