Agreed not bad at all considering we originally were told we would be getting only one per month. Obviously we have more than one, but moving forward it's unclear on what to expect of future inventory. Also to mention that we have more FR-S models than most other dealers. I'm not sure about what criteria scion is using to decide which dealers will get what inventory.

I invite you to come take a look. We did get the red and silver A/T as scheduled. Schroeder69 did come see us on the Black A/T the day it arrived.

We here at Headquarter Scion received 3 A/T and 3 Manual transmission models. As far as the balance of models in the market. A preliminary search indicated their are fewer M/T models, but not much fewer. Looked to be only about 12 models less. This is based on information for South Florida only and not reflective of the rest of the region.

My only guess of why more automatics would be because many customers both who can and can't drive manual have said they prefer automatic over manual for various reasons so I imagine that may play a role in the reason.

Yes Chedder we know its the last day of the month. The FR-S is not a vehicle that has national specials at this time.

Scion, you wanna know why your brand is 90% underwater, its shit like this. Learn to reign in your dealership network or you are gonna go bust. Kthx.

edit: btws, my dealership was kinda asshatty too, and had very pooor sales etiquette.

Who did you buy from? After spending time with the shop car... I might go shopping this weekend. Even though I can't really afford a car payment right now since I need a whole mess of new photo gear.

I bought my car from Power Toyota, and I would suggest staying clear of their sales team because they are one unorganized mess. Finally got my tradein lien payoff straightened out yesterday and I took delivery of the car a few weeks ago. :|

Curiously enough, the techs at Power Toyota are pretty great guys.

Matt @ AP said he had a great buying experience at Big 2 Chandler, very expedited and no BS at all.
