Arrived in Richmond, Canada!

[Mr.Jay]

Mid may is what I was told as well also the colors I see are the same ones that the Richmond dealer said would be in the first batch. I see one gsb which I really hope is mine.

Talk about blue balls, I got excited until I saw the subforum. I'm from one of the other Richmonds...

We actually do but I don't think many car carriers go through it.

Hope to see these in their owner's hands soon!

Dealers will tell you anything to get you off their back lol.

Now if it turns out that a few hundred are onshore rather than the dozen or so in that photo, and you are on the west coast, I suppose it might be possible. But they have told dealers to expect their demonstrators in the next few weeks so that will be the top delivery priority. How many Scion dealers in Canada - maybe 60? 80?

If someone can get in that lot, check if they are all ATs - if so we'll know they are demonstrators for sure.

That's really what I meant, should have clarified. Used to live in Richmond area, went to college there and lived there a couple of years after college. Loved Richmond!

I want to see them when they come in. I had a glimpse of them at the autoshow and personally thought that they looked ugly. Maybe it's because it came in the crappy silver. You rarely see silver sports cars in Richmond.

I think I've seen all of them but Hot Lava in person.

I know there are folks that love the Silver, but it was definitely my least favorite "flavor" that I've seen. To me, it doesn't do the car justice. Then again there are a lot of folks that will say Firestorm is a little over the top!

[Mr.Jay]

Yeah not a fan of the silver myself and I think the red is a bit much as well as only certain cars can pull of red

I'm just glad they ar here in Canada finally


And as for silver sports cars in Richmond you see a few mostly from what I've seen 350z and GTRs others its white so many white cars

Elsewhere in the world, Scions are showing up at ports in Oregon.

I've only seen the red FR-S and the silver BRZ in person. I've yet to see the dark grey, white, black FR-S - those are the colors that I am considering. I could get the white to match my elantra so that I only own white cars. White cars can hide dents very easily but get dirty rather fast. I need to wash my elantra at least once every week or two weeks but with the weather we get here in Vancouver, its just not feasable.

I am very glad that they are here in Canada. Do we have any headway with the group buy?

I agree with the fact that there are only a few cars that can get away with the red. I personally wouldn't get the car in RED.

And you're absolutely right! there are so many WHITE cars out there! lol...

I'll probably go check out the dock later today just to see the cars for myself. I'll bring my camera.

=O I hope my asphalt was there but just not in the photo. It doesn't seem like there's a lot of people wanting asphalt, everyone's going for white and red

Keep in mind SWP/Whiteout is not a pure white, it has a creamy quality, so it won't be a perfect match for your Elantra (going by the pic you posted earlier).

Fewer white cars in the GTA -silver and darker colours predominate here.

I'm still betting on June sadly. Hoping for April 19th instead though! :P

Don't you find it weird that the FR-S are already here in Canada but Subaru still hasn't released the price for the BRZ? This is a wild wild guess, but it seems like Subaru is banking on the FR-S being sold out, and then they come in with a 30k price tag, so people who want the car would have to buy theirs lol
