I waited 6 months, but I ordered start July which is a factor.

If mine comes in June, 10 months for a gt is long! 4 more months to go

jonbatz01 02-28-2013 09:26 AM

Isnt there a couple of 86s at dealerships right now?

you might want to try to go around the dealership see if there are any that can picked up right away :)

Bought a Silver GT from Scarboro Toyota. Ordered end of June 2012, picked up mid Aug 2012. Mrs was friends with a chick who worked there so was lucky.

I ordered mid June and got mine beginning of January

Man everyone seems to wait 6 months 10 months seems Too long!! I called a few dealerships they had waiting lists nothin on the premises or coming in, I have a feeling that they sold my car when it arrived and didn't tell me nothing!! Money talks these days!! I'm going to email my sales rep and put some pressure it's just doesn't seem
Right!!

Ordered manual GT in end of Sep, was originally told ready by Feb but has been repeatedly delayed, latest is unconfirmed for May production:bonk:

Toyota have really odd production systems, You guys will hate me for saying this, but I placed my order on January 2nd and my car is built and I'm picking it up in 19 days. I was expecting my build for mid June but my stock controller called me up and said they are making 4 extra AT GTS's in the 60*** Batch, and asked If I'd like mine early, to which I answered hell yes of course.

but yeah, he also questioned why people like me are being offered cars when there are people that have been and are still waiting 6 months later. I'm starting to think it has something to do with MT transmission to be honest.

I wouldn't feel too bad if I was you, I ordered on June 23rd last year here in Brisbane and still haven't even got a planned production month. They say possibly April or May build, really getting annoyed at this point since I was told Dec when I ordered it. Not much I can do though except wait or go elsewhere. I think the color is what's holding mine up though cause they have offered me 3 other colors (blue/ashphalt/black) and it's not what I want damn it!! I want my red 86.

The two 86's I actually saw on the showroom were both red. Oh man, you will be pleased, they looked terrific.

That being said it seems to be all about the dealership, the one I put my deposit down at seems to get random extra allocation due to their high sales, I was originally offered a red GTS AT and knocked it back due to wanting my asphalt, but he managed to get the colour switched for me though, thankfully.

Don't worry man, you'll get yours soon enough, they seem to be ramping up production now, and as I said, red looked so good polished and spotless, It really was the center of attention in the showroom.
