The truck won't be available to pick my car up until next Monday, so then a few days beyond that to get my car. They said another company could do it sooner for $100 more but I am ok to wait a little bit more. Oh well, in the meantime while it sits there at the dealership this week I am going to get window tints applied at a nearby place, saves me the trouble of taking it somewhere later on my own time.

Today visit DMV, easy! No trouble but need to go back to provide the smog cert and real CO registration to complete it. Here is a summary:

1. Yes, need to do a smog check, even the car is brand new. Say $50.
2. No re-smog every 2 years. It is a 5 years after this one, just like any new car.
3. Pay a $292 CA registration fee, just like buying in CA. Registration starting today. So It make sense to use the CO temp registration to the last day, because I walk out with a CA temp registration with today's date.
4. CA Sales tax collected in CO is all credited. My CO dealer hit me with Santa Clara rate, so I owe nothing. Otherwise pay the difference. Will end up the same anyway.
5. The CO RTD tax for 1.1% collected, it is paid to CO, no refund, no credit. $310 is wasted.
6. The CO title / license Fee collected and paid to CO, $267 is another waste, cannot credit to CA fee.
7. Misc: Waiting for the car for a 1 week or so after paid....(say cost $100 on car payment?)
8. Take my time off from work to wait in line in DMV...(pay rate @??)

My car is MSRP shipped. The fee wasted is about $727 in the process of bringing in the car. I would say I will go for MSRP + $1000 if there is a car available in CA, if I can go back and do this again. (It does not means I agree with this MSRP + practice)

(Bonus: I can go back to CA dealer and refund the lemon car if the CEL issue pop up and cannot be fix. Now I only limit to warranty repair.)

:bonk:

Thanks for the update. I'm taking mine in soon and I was pretty bummed about possibly losing the 5 year exemption.

I know when mine got off the truck from CO it was in the front bottom position and completely covered in a fine layer of brown dust. No bugs luckily but the dust was everywhere.

Capitol Scion has 2 Whiteout FR-S coming in a little over a week from now, one automatic one manual. Though, they are forcing options. Which is causing me to pass on that dealer. Just a heads up though!

I call them "Pricy" instead. I have the same experience when I was shopping for a Prius right after the Japan earthquake and parts shortage. I Wonder how they survive by discourage people?

Got a call from Piercy Toyota/Scion aka "Pricy" yesterday on a dark grey FRS manual with 5k mi on it. The guy told me they are probably going to sell it @ MSRP (it was in the shop and getting cleared for sale).

Thing was, the salesman got my name wrong TWICE in the same phone call and then said he had a missed call from me (when he originally called me and I never called back).

So, if anyone wants a dark grey FRS with 5k mi on it and buy it @ MSRP...LOL.....:bellyroll:

I have had two horrible experiences with them. First time I setup an apt for a test drive and the sales rep was a no show. They handed me off to someone that showed me the 38k markup crazy car and told me I couldn't test drive it because then no one would buy it, I told him no one would buy it regardless with $12k in dealer markup. I waited a week and got a different sales rep, setup an apt in 30 minutes to drive this demo car. 7 minutes later they called back saying it was sold. WTF, you can't hold on to a demo car for 30 minutes to make more sales...
