I ordered on February 27 and picked up my Whiteout Monogram yesterday! Just under one month and no pre-order! Took a nice drive home along the Trans Canada; I cannot believe how amazing this car is and for this price. She drives like a dream. Toyota has built an amazing drivers' car!
Looking forward to getting through the break-in period and then going above 4,000 rpm and over 80km! Took some nice hard accelerations to try it out and went a bit over the 80km on my drive home, but nothing super crazy.
I had to use my hazard lights on and off on the drive down island due to the 90km speed limit and to make sure no one ran into me because of my slow speed. I had one person follow me for about 30 min. and another person going the other way swerved over the center line because they were staring. Another interesting thing was that a ton of people kept passing and then cutting me off! (jealous, lol) Everywhere I stopped people were staring and asking about it. So awesome! Also, when I went to the dealer they got me to test drive (as I'd never driven an FR-S before) and I new the moment I saw her I had to have her. Test drive I knew as soon as I drove off the lot...
My Celica feels like a tin can with a lawn mower engine in comparison. I'm so glad I waited for the Monogram.
I already got the back out on this thing just barely going around a corner at a fairly good pace. Traction control did not kick it, but man is that a great feeling!
Thank you Toyota!!! GT86=my dream car!!!
