Your local dealer wants to take orders for cars allocated to them from Toyota not on cars you want to order as they take a lot longer for confirmation of building.
Ur the second biggest fan...... So does this mean u could have got ur friend to ship u a TRD spec if u requested?

I think your no. of 500 is more accurate (i hope haha).
spiller you where correct about the 1000. I work at Toyota (been there for over 7 year).

My GTS 86 is due to arrive into the country on the 20th of this month.
Out of curiosity I wanted to see how many orders are in the system. When I checked the system about a week ago there was well over 1000 orders in the system. I think it would be very close to 1500 by now (I'll have to check).

Some of the most recent orders that are in the system are scheduled for September production so these people may not even see those cars until next year!
