I think June is a lot more likely than May. I just can't see Canadians getting this car before Americans. We're hated don't you know.

Your cars don't come from our ports. Our ports only cater to the western Canada up to Saskatchewan.

Hmmm... I am going to phone the sales rep again to determine the sales date tomorrow. I wanna go for another test drive... The giggles and over excitement of seeing/sitting in the car really dulled my test drive senses and now that I have calmed down a bit, I can now go for a logical test drive once again.

Maybe I'll just wait until the supra successor! LOL.

Great Idea! Get a car that I would be barely able to control! LOL. That's like giving a baby a loaded gun... hmm similar to the 18 year old who crashed a viper on the lougheed highway a long time ago. more cash than sense.

I almost wonder if I burned myself out wanting this car so bad... Been so busy lately but maybe that's a good thing. Less obsessing over this car and the days pass by quicker this way!

My dealer in Ottawa is estimating delivery at the beginning of June. Our local motorsports club's first Solo2 event of the season is June 3rd and I would love to thread the FR-S through the cones that soon!

Yep, that's pretty much what my dealer said as well, 3 weeks to be realist before delivery, which is pretty much june 1-2..or I could get very very lucky and get it next week or in 2 weeks

Let's keep this thread going. Marloon cracks me up. I'm amazed to see how much knowledge he has of the port. Hanging around the docks much?

Keep us posted on the dates! I really need to know so I can plan my insurance / trade in. Worst case I think I'll just give it to them early.
