Yes, I got the same call. They said its coming in on the 23rd night, which is a Saturday. They will prep the car and release the vehicle on the 26th. I am trying to schedule for Hamza to come in on the 27th to OptiCoat my car, I asked the dealer not to wash my car. Go look at the demo vehicle one more time, you might consider the same option, it has a lot of swirl marks and they are very visible on red and darker colours.

Not what I hoped for but, been waiting this long two more weeks won't kill me. I just want enough time to break it in properly, have a track day at Mosport on the 30th of July, super pumped!

At least you got exact information aha. Im telling the not to wash it, then I'm driving it right off the lot to ProTint in Hamilton to get it tinted and possibly have a clear bra put on. What is OptiCoat?

OptiCoat is an additional ceramic based clear coat. It's more scratch and stain resistant then the standard factory finish. There are a bunch of discussions going on in these forums about it. The guy that is detailing my car is a member here look him up Hmaza7, does great work at a very good price for members of this forum. Let me know what the cost of the tints and bra end up being. I am thinking the same, still need to figure out what tint I'm going with. As for the bra, I want the entire hood done. What level of tint are you putting on?

even though i can't use the car at the moment (still havent sold old one.. haven't even put it up for sale yet), i'm kind of disappointed that mine isn't here yet.

I checked my papers and turns out i put a deposit down all the way back on February 23rd. I have a vin number for the car, but it's not at the dealer yet. I am disappoint.

Okay so here are the steps to change the Scion to whatever you want.Turn the key to the "ON" position.

Turn Off the stero

Hold the centre button on the volume knob

Opening is what you want to change bu make sure the car type is set right too mine was set to Tc as well as every other FRS I have been in.
