Big congrats on the engagement! And you can even justify to her how she doesn't need that big of a ring because of the 'substantial cost of a new FR-S'

Just got my call Scion corporate. It went down somewhat like this:

"Congratulations, you're one of our First 86! You won the ability to buy the FRS early!!"
"How early?"
"I'm sorry, we don't know that"
"Okay, can you tell me the price?"
"The price has not been announced."
"What options for the car will I have?"
"I don't know the options either."

jkkkkk, the ring's already at the designers and it, like the FR-S, has a price that is TBD and probably more than I want to pay LOL!!

It could be worse, imagine the cost of a BRZ and a ring vs the (rumored) lower cost of the FR-S and a ring.

And if she cares about size...well...uhh...size matters (no homo )

Typical dealer, they probably forgot what brand they sell.

At least for the couple of months you'll have a really dope car to drive up and down PC1! Imagine all the times you can take that drive up to San Simeon and go see Hearst Castle and how spectacular it will be in the FR-S.

Damn, Minnesota makes me sad sometimes All we have here is to drive is behind slow and noisy Hard-ly Able-sons on 2 lane roads.

I'd so take the car vs an actual ring. The FR-S would get more use...and mean more to me...lol. I've already tried to set up this type of scenario with my current BF....he seemed to like the idea! I don't think my family would understand this though...

Here's hoping that in 96 hours we have a few dropouts and some of the rest of us get our shot.

I wish they told you which spot on the wait list you were. I also wonder if this list will transition into a "true" wait list once the car is officially on sale.

I'm going to call the dealer in a bit, to see if they know anything. I doubt they'll know anything more, but I'm guessing it's worth a shot. If anyone wants me to ask anything, just let me know.

Bro, go in there and make a big deal about it. Tell em Jack Hollis himself said that winners would be treated like kings and not only would get an FRS for free, but would also have access to any Scion/Toyota/Lexus car in the time before you take delivery.

Then drive away in an LFA and go to Mexico, never to be seen again!
