L.A. Region April Build Book - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Kearny Mesa Scion · 04-05-2012, 01:59 PM

I'm surpised no one has entered this yet or maybe they have since people are posting T.I.S. info. This is the confirmed build book for the FR-S in April for the LA Region. This will be shared by about 80 dealers.

Nice, Thanks for the info. Only 11 Ultramarine ATs....heh. Not bad for the first batch though.

What's surprising is the number of autos, I was expecting 65/35 in favor of the manuals especially when looking at our sold orders. I know our auto people will be happy.

It's very possible the ATs are destined as floor model/demo cars.

H8R Orange is the least popular... SWP and DGM are the most. Can't say I'm surprised....

Saibot · 04-23-2012, 12:51 AM

woulda thout thered be more ultramarine...

Sport-Tech · 04-23-2012, 01:36 AM

Ultramarine certainly grabs the eye but some might find its intensity hard to live with long-term, so no big surprise there. What does surprise me is the high # of Ravens. Probably a regional thing, I doubt it would be anywhere near as popular in southern Ontario. Black paint here seems mostly limited to luxo-cars.

cant decide whether I want whiteout or raven. guess i'll have to see 'em both to make a decision :P thanks for the information, bud!

A Washington DC area dealership I spoke with said they would probably keep an FR-S for themselves as a demo car... but also said they didn't think every dealer would do so.

That's a decent amount of Cars for 80 dealers in the LA area alone. Wondering how this stacks up with the northern CA/bay area orders. Each dealer gets at least 2 cars. With some likely getting first 86 and demo shipments as well.

Have to remember that less than 10% (86 for 900+ dealers) of all Scion dealers are getting a 1st86 car. There is a disproportionate number of them in CA though.
