How long did you wait for your FR-S?
 

This subject has probably been mentioned in other posts, but I'm just curious. I've been calling dealership after dealership and nobody knows when they're getting their allocations in so I can't even put my name down for a car. I am ending week 2 of this journey and I just want to give myself a reality check of when I can expect to get into my FR-S. Thoughts???

Your in for a treat lol I ordered mine 4 weeks ago and still waiting. Your best bet is to keep searching and find a dealership that has one on the lot and hall ass up there to get it.

Yeah that's what I'm trying to get figured out. It sucks b/c there's one in the area in Whiteout, but it's a M/T. Hope you get yours soon!

I myself had put my deposit down in early April. I finally took delivery at my own dealership on 7.10 (I work for O'Brien Toyota in Indianapolis) Curious, are you looking for the MT or the Auto? I have two customers waiting for their MT's whose orders were just allocated to us after a month, but still have around a month and a half to see delivery. I like to update the soon to be owners bi-weekly as I'm sure they'll be as anxious as I was waiting for mine.

The only issues I have been seeing in our market is the availability of the manual transmissions. I hope this is helpful for you.

We have had one to two auto's on the lot pretty regularly since they launched. With the last two being Firestorm and Whiteout.

Dealer ship told me. 4 to 6 weeks so it will be anytime. The wait has gave me enough time to get most of my aftermarket parts before the car gets in know what i mean.

Someone messaged me telling me there was 1 in spring TX, but Im sure u wouldn't want to travel that far. what color and a/t or m/t u looking for?

I'm actually looking for an automatic. I was able to get my hands on one to test drive, but it was in Asphalt and I wasn't interested in the color. Still looked good, but really had my heart set on white. I'm also glad that I didn't end up buying that car off of the lot b/c the salesman drove it like an idiot. Not sure how many test drives that car has been on, but I don't want my car to be abused before I own it.

Anyways, yes your post has been helpful. I just need to be patient. Good thing my old Corolla hasn't kicked the bucket yet... :crossfingers:

how long they sit for before someone grabs them? 10 to 15 mins after getting off the truck Im guessing

If you don't want to wait, the nearest FRS in the color you want is just a drive away (though the manuals are harder to find on lots right now)...

Check cars.com within 100 miles of where you live...you might be surprised.

:thanks:

that was the agreement between me and my dealer that know one would drive it besides one person getting it off the truck. And after that parking it, with no customers or employees touching or anything or i wouldn't buy it. He said it was no problem there for i put a 13k down and another 8k when i pick it up.

Holy moly! Well you basically paid for the call in full! No wonder you got what you wanted!! Yeah that's why I can't wait to put down my deposit because the dealership told me that once you've put down your deposit, those keys are only accessible to very few people. The salesmen are excluded from this group so they can't take the claimed cars on test drives.

iv been saving for a while. and ya thats def true. thats the way it should be with any dealer.

24 hours :)
