...But i cant take her home yet

I did get to test drive it which was amazing. Pulls nice, its stable and well balanced... Love the interior, everything is within reach. I cant wait until they can actually sell me the car LOL...

CSSM · 05-15-2012, 03:51 AM

Very cool! Congratulations! That is an interesting dealership..

Metabrz · 05-15-2012, 04:02 AM

Congratulations. May I ask why if they have the car in stock which you ordered the cant / won't let you take it away?

TuxedoCartman · 05-15-2012, 04:10 AM

Holy hell-monkeys that's hot!!!

My days of owning (and washing) black cars are behind me, but doesn't stop them from being drop-dead sexy though!

I believe its because the car doesn't go on sale until June 1st. So from what im told it will just sit in their showroom (with doors locked, lol) looking pretty until then.

There's a First-86 at my local dealership. Everyone is allowed to touch and sit in the car.

That's horrible for the person that car belongs to...

The black looks fantastic though, thanks for the pics its nice to have some reassurance on my decision to get black (seems like no love for black at all on the forum!)

Fortunately a buddy of mine works there and assured my no one other than staff will be able to get into the car.

In the picture it is not. It is in another showroom still in Santa Monica. They left it there for me to take it for a spin.

djdnz · 05-15-2012, 01:37 PM

I have a feeling your idea of locked doors is a bit different than theirs. A car in the show room to entice more buyers is likely not going to stay locked when they want to check out the interior.

ngabdala · 05-15-2012, 01:46 PM

It's his fault. He didn't show up for days and on Sat. he finally shows up with his wife/girlfriend and leaves the dealership with her to discuss their budget. It is still there today as I went in to get my FR-S deposit because I'm keeping my BRZ order

Man I don't know how you can stand next to her, then sit in her, and then walk away...............

Can you answer me this, what are your first impressions of the car? Did you go home and think about the car after you saw it? Anything surprise you in person?

The wait till June 1st is not cool. Is there any chance they could let it go may 28ish? Or are they sticking to June 1st? I don't understand how a dealer could have the car in stock, and not let it go.

Funny... Me and my girl got into the car, went around SaMo for a test drive and instantly fell in love... Its response is amazing, really makes you feel one with the car. You get good feedback from the road and the suspension tuning isnt harsh, its just right. We came back to the show room, and didnt want to get out of the car hahaha.

The only thing that i found interesting, was the Valet Button located inside the trunk lol... This button's function disables the keyless entry to the trunk as well as entry to the trunk via the latch inside the car. The only way in to the trunk is via a key.... but if you have noticed there is no key hole... well apparently there is haha, its just facing downward next to the handle of the trunk. Bit of an awkward placement but i can see its function if you're smuggling in bicycles

hahahaha

Trust me i dont understand why either, but i am pretty sure its also a Scion Corporate order and not so much the dealer that doesnt want to sell it. But its cool, ill just shop around for wheels to slap on in the mean time

ESBjiujitsu · 05-15-2012, 03:50 PM

BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! CONGRATS!

Torture! Just remember what doesn't kill you will only make you stronger. When you do get the car, it will be even sweeter....

Congrats though, the black is very nice..
