You are not alone. ;)

Complete opposite for me. I've been trying to sleep super early for the past week to sort of "fast forward" the days :bellyroll:

I did that for the week leading up to taking delivery, so I know that feeling. It's maddening waiting. Not something I am used too. It's worth it though.

Not only are you not alone, my dealer has been telling me that its going to be here "tomorrow" everyday except Sunday since the Monday before last. The suspense is killing me. He finally told me today he spoke with someone at the rail yard today and told me Friday for sure. Well I drove to the rail yard today just to see if by some exceedingly small chance I might spot it from the road. I took one look at that lot from 200 yards away and thought, no way will I ever see it. Well guess what, as I'm about to leave I spotted the telltale T shaped red and clear center rear reflector. And as sad as this sounds, that's the most I've seen of one in person, but I saw it, next to only one other one.

So Friday it is. At least I can have a peaceful Thursday at work knowing it WONT come in tomorrow, instead of wondering. (But it was sitting right there! Deliver it already!)

Bu-Tang 06-07-2012 01:44 AM

i watch the Chris Harris review every night often more than once to fall asleep, i wake up, have a spirited drive to work, Make a cup of coffee and then come to this forum to see how many posts in every section of this forum i could have possibly missed during the time i was in bed(usually none) then check through out the entire day to see if anyone got there's while never not having my phone in case I get the call to say its here. all the pre orders have been delivered @ my dealer and the next white MT is mine. its almost like living in some sort of hell............fml

Every time my phone rings I get excited thinking it's my dealer calling with the good news...but it never is.

Sheeit...wait until you know when it's coming and its due the next day. It will be like Christmas all over again. Like back in the day when you didn't know what you were getting(even though in this case you do).

I haven't even ordered yet and I'm predicting this for me.

Ravine 06-07-2012 03:46 AM

Gah I've already ordered but in Australia, it's not even released yet! Official release date is the 18th of June.

It can't come soon enough!

Deslock 06-07-2012 04:29 AM

I woke up at 3:30 AM, probably because I'm picking up the car at 9:00 AM.

Duff_man 06-07-2012 05:43 AM

glad I didn't chek my facebook yesterday evening before going to bed, dealer recieved my car shortly before closing, and my salesmen sent me a message via facebook! Saw it this morning, it's gonna be a damn long day at job! O_O

P.S: leaving for job earlier so I can stop by dealer and look it up! :D

The other thing is: I'm leaving for 2 weeks, this Saturday..
So I would LOVE to have the car in before then.. but looking very unlikely now.. so I will just have to wait until end of June....

Nope. Don't want mine to get here too early. Waiting on a few things at work before I'm officially ready to pull the trigger. Told the dealer it'll be around a month and a half or so. They said they probably wouldn't get another one before then so no issue.

I'm with you brother!

I ordered a raven AT on Monday, but now I have to wait until it gets here. As Tom Petty says.... the waiting is the hardest part!

Haha - same. I'm a total workaholic, but lately I have been packing in 10-12 hours of sleep per night.

eriktherod 06-07-2012 01:47 PM

Oh, I totally understand how you all feel. I was expecting a 4-8 week wait on an Ultramarine and it was so rough. I couldn't focus or concentrate, kept checking on these forums, wanting one so badly.

I got lucky and managed to find a deal that fell through and got the Firestorm Red instead, can't say I regret it one bit! Now I have the other problem, making excuses to drive it around! :D "Aw... I'm already at work.. :("

I really love the ride, it's smooth but still gives you a proper feel of the road. The ride height is also perfect, low but not too low. Things that my lowered Si would scrape on gives no problem to the FR-S whatsoever.

SkullWorks 06-07-2012 01:59 PM

Yeah tell me about it, I have been anticipating a phone call for almost a month, since it made sense to me that Cali would get there's among the first batches...I have the first order at my dealer....still waiting on ETA and VIN...CANADA has cars already...jimminy Christmas this has gotten stupid....where is my car

Wes 06-07-2012 02:05 PM
