Dang, lucky... I put my deposit at Autonation Scion in Tempe on Jan 30 and it won't be shipping out from Japan until Feb 7th. =[ I also ordered the whiteout 6MT.

Anyone know the time it takes for it to be shipped?

It's in, parked along the fence, all PDI/PDS'd and looking good. Saw it when picking up another new Toyota there.

Also got to sit in a Whiteout Monogram at the auto show. I was very interested to see if the seats felt any firmer with the Alcantara but couldn't tell any difference in appearance, color, texture (grip) or firmness.

What was shocking about the auto show Monogram was the mismatch in color and texture between the body and spoiler. Definitely needs a repaint to match.

The one at the auto show wasn't even a real monogram. It still had turn key start in addition to them putting in the hvac unit. The seats felt less firm than my seats in my car, but that might also be due to 2 weeks of people getting in and out of all shapes and sizes wearing them down.

With the way things are out there don't know if I'll make it to the show… Curious to check out the Monogram there. No pics?

Besides being able to get the color and transmission I wanted there are other advantages to ordering the car before the ship docks. You have the ability to select which port installed options you want (or don't want). Once the car leaves the port it will be more difficult to get exactly what you want.

This makes me wonder. When I talked to my dealer yesterday he said mine was going to the port on the 12th, I assumed he meant the port in Japan but now I wonder if mine is on the same boat as yours scheduled to arrive in Jax on the 12th.

It was right off the boat, correct Monroney label pricing and all.

Hope for your sake it is. As far as I know this is the first shipment of cars to the southeast distributor.

Just this one interior shot, otherwise you can't tell it apart from any other Whiteout with the engine off (DRL's off). Honestly, it made me appreciate the gorgeous 10 Series Silver Ignition more than ever, no offense to Monogram buyers.

Check out the Northwest forum for pics I posted of the SEMA FR-S's.

Oh I didn't know there was an auto show in Oregan. I was referring the the North American International Auto show where the monogram "prototype" was first unveiled 2 weeks ago.

Oh my god please tell me the ignition won't look like that..
