Ultimately, I guess the cars still "come" from Japan which is why I think my dealer is saying that, but if TRD is modifying them in the US, then I hope it gets here much faster than my dealer says
Yes and no. The car is built at the same factory any other twin is built at. The difference is that the numbers for the RS/Series.Blue will be sequential and they will also need to get the plaques/special edition packaging, and paint added to them at the factory (Japan). The only thing really added here will be the wheels as they are added at the port where your car comes in.

They wont just take an already built car off the shelf and respray it which is what I think you are thinking that they are doing.
