Those of you that ordered your FR-S

I'm trying to get a ballpark answer of how long it generally takes from the point of ordering your exact car to you signing the paperwork. I called and asked many dealerships and they've said sometimes they order a car and it will be there in a week or two or some up to 2 months.

I live in the Southwest (Houston) and I just want to know how long you all waited after you placed your order? I suppose region doesn't matter.

Anticipation is killing me

I waited about a week... I had a hookup though, so your mileage may vary.

took me about 2-3 weeks...but depends also on the volume that is being pushed to your dealer. if it's a low volume dealer it could take some time

Shoot I can handle 2 to 4 weeks. I do sort of have a hookup though. So maybe 1-2 weeks.

I want to order the Firestorm A/T in Houston also and was wondering the same thing. Thanks for the feedback.

What dealer were you looking at? I didn't want to pay over MSRP and didn't want a dealer charging way more than usual on the dealer "fees".

I'm actually talking to a dealer in San Antonio because they are a Five Axis dealer and I'm buying that full kit. They've been trying to do car trades between other dealerships but no luck so far. I think I'm just going to order my White 6MT with BeSpoke audio instead of wait on one to show up and get it traded to this dealership.

Smitty, yes that is correct. It was special ordered with zero options.

Was a week between the day I placed the deposit and the day I picked up the car.
