I just pre-ordered a whiteout FR-S thirty minutes ago!
 
They charged me $200 for the white pearl paint? Is this normal? It's not a deal breaker or anything, maybe they just got mad because I applied for the $1000 recent college graduation rebate that toyota offers?

Anyways it's the first car I bought sight-unseen, I gave them $1000 for deposit, and they said they car should be on the lot on the 28th this month, but want to deliver it June 1st for corporate reasons... As I might be out of town at work my mom might have to drive it off the lot! haha :bonk:

This is my first post and I look forward to being a part of this online car enthusiast community! - cheers

Yes there's a 200 charge for white; it's a Pearl.

$220. actually. Any pearl coat on Toyota/Scion has been an added $220. (iQ, Prius, Highlander, etc). Not sure what they do over at Lexus.


Option code "PC"
Special Color .............................. 220.00

Idk, but I will try hard. I had a pretty cool sales lady too. (she took a picture of my diploma and told me to bring her official transcripts from my school) There is a chance they will say no, but it's worth a shot.

The Whiteout version is gorgeous. Definitely the color I would go with, but I've seen the Hot Lava units for Hawaii and they look great, too.

Its funny my dealer was so nice to not even take a deposit from me i offered to pay 1000 bucks and they said they would order it for me without a deposit. Im the second in line at my dealer to get my whiteout MT, im supposed to get a vin soon but they said its being built as we speak and i should get it by june.

markmatley 05-03-2012 05:23 AM

Too bad they wont give me that rebate even though I'm in grad school.

But cheers for ordering one! =)

grats!, it's nice to have a pleasant experience at a car dealership, as many people have negative experiences.
