I bet you that Toyota dealership replaces that car with a GT mt that comes in and if they didn't sell there old demo that would of been some ones spec in the que. if 28 dealers did this in the state that means add 56 more cars to the que. so even more wait for us. I'm pretty sure in this state they are doing the que at state level cos twa are saying only have 4 gts a month between 28 dealers oldest order 1st. So really every one is in a state que not a dealer que.

This was what i was thinking from the start......

mmm, yawn! Have I missed anything? ermmm NO! Guys, calm the f*(K down! Is not like the dealer is forcing you to buy the car! Or asking YOU to pay for the car, so get over it! Should anyone start a hate thread everytime Ferrari sells their cars at a very high price? Do they worth that much? Or even this car? Sure it is a nice car to drive and everything but being very honest I dont think it's even worth 40k. Something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. One of the economic principles, right?! FT86GOD, why dont you have a winge about the fact that his car is somewhere around 25k in US? Exactly!
Get over it! Someone was willing to pay for it and considered it is worth it to jump the q!

Captain,

Which state you in & when did you order? Me early July for GTS manual and have no confirmed build date as yet.

On a positive note I am of the belief that production output will speed up & that TMCA do genuinely care.

I think you would meet all kinds of people regardless of the price point of their car. I have seen similar threads in Porsche and BMW forums.

Let's try to chill with the fighting and arguing.

I will be more than happy to pass out infractions next time...

Cool ! Not a bad delivery date given it's an "extremely" rare BRZ ! Assume it's manual & Blue?

It is a manual but Mrs Wife chose the light silver. As the colour doesn't interest me that much I was happy for her to choose.

With 6500km on the clock, it is not that appealing a proposition
The owner posted on another forum that they weren't getting many bites at an inflated price, hence the reasonable price
