Same ETA, same lack of car. I've had a VIN for four weeks now, and actually had an ETA of 5/15 at one time. SOA tells me that my car has been at a railhead in Chicago for about the last ten days. I am #1 of 7, ordered on 3/1.

One SOA rep indicated that they are rushing Imprezas to the dealers since they are selling so fast.

I live a little over an hour from the dealer. I'm hoping to make the trip with a friend who has an E46M3, and then swing by and see the guys at Enthusiast Auto afterwards, but it is awfully hard to plan anything without good info!

Hang in there. In a month or two we will have forgotton how frustrating this is!

Mine was at Byers Mazda Subaru north of Columbus. I know Byers Imports out East got their SWP BRZ already. I've heard nothing about Hatfield yet.

Dealer just called! Distribution told him that my car should be arriving Thursday afternoon or Friday morning.

I was starting to get worried because SOA told me this morning that it could be up to two weeks late...

Let me guess, is your order thru Stan Olson, and its a DGM? I am supposedly #3 at Stan Olson (DGM Ltd MT), and yesterday my salesman (Scott) informed me a DGM was sitting on a truck in KC (the #1 order) and that he would call me when unloaded so I could see what it looked like up close.

You, sir, are correct! Last I heard, from Zach before he left, is that I am #2 at Stan Olsen (DGM Ltd AT)... So that sounds to be mine (be nice when you see it :P )

Seemed like too much of a coincidence to not be a match. My wife says I should drive you to KC so you don't have to wait on the driver! Good for you that yours is close to delivery.

That doesn't explain how I got my Lightning Red on 5/24, which has a manufacturing date of 3/22. Last 4 of VIN is 0445.

Oh, and to stay on topic, my original ETA was 5/29.

That's almost a whole week early! I hope mine will be early too....last I heard it's stuck in the ports. Which port...I dunno.

I hope it's the Seattle port because then that's just 30 mins away from my dealer. If Oregon port then not too bad either, 3 hours away....
