I now work at a Toyota Dealership as a part time tech during school and saw the first FR-S to hit our dealership on may 28th and instantly fell in love. I went that day after work to get a salesman to run my credit and see what payments would be like with my trade in. As soon as I knew it was easily possible for me to afford I got the keys and went on my own private test drive. 25 minutes later I came back and new this was the car for me. But I really wanted to order one in black ( The one I test drove was grey). I ordered my FR-S June 1st and to this day I still don't have it. Over 4 months later!!! Two FR-S showed up with the first month or two (one red, one silver). My sales manager has called corporate to get an explanation for why the order hasn't been filled but I get nothing.

How is it that black of all colors is this hard to get? It's not like I am trying to get the premium white. I just have to keep playing the waiting game and hope I get it by the time it snows here in Kansas. Oh and I am the only person to have ordered one at our dealership the others that have sold were bought right of the lot. I'm a patient guy but this is a little ridiculous.

Anyways guess I just needed to vent and get other people's thoughts on my situation.
My black manual BRZ was ordered in May and I got a VIN about 3 weeks ago and a conformation date that the car would arrive at the dealership between 10-24 and11-05....Subaru dealership said it would probably be somewhere in the middle of them dates....so hopefully a big shipment is coming with FR-S and BRZ's on the same boat...FYI the dealership said that in December they could start taking orders again...so, hopefully all of the other orders when be filled...good luck
