I ordered mine July 7th (Firestorm MT at Heffner Toyota) and still have no delivery date in site, so don't get too excited yet.  |
I have been hearing that the FR-S has been flying off the lots when they come in. They barely stay for hours let alone days.
I had requested test drives from Cambridge, Heffner, and Guelph for an AT. I had originally thought to just test drive the vehicle and then order one, but, the car that I test drove was available for sale and ordering one would be a minimum of weeks and if I wanted a rare colour, it might even be months (they are built in Japan after all). I fell in love with the car and did not want to wait.
As a matter of fact, I almost missed out on the car because I was staining my deck when I received a reply from Guelph Scion that one was available. Luckily it was late in the day and the next day was raining. I went to the dealership as early as I could.
I guess what I am trying to say (in a long winded kind of way), no one is getting any special favours. Sometimes it is a matter of being at the right place at the right time. Being persistant will pay off with an answer eventually. And like ZiggyZag420 said, if you have a VIN, they should at least be able to search it and give you a rough estimate.
