I'm no rush so I'm perfectly fine with waiting.
Craig was easy to work with, gave me a sheet with the final agreed price for the car for when it comes in.

Congratulations! I'm going to be e-mailing Alan at Leith sometime tomorrow to check in since it's been a month since I ordered. I'll post back what I hear. Leith is an excellent dealership that I will be going back to in the future. Glad to hear you had the same experience.

My email:

Good afternoon. I have heard that several SWP Limited Manual-Transmission BRZ models have been delivered in North Carolina in the past week or so. Could you give me an update on my order? Is it in transit, or do you have any ETA info for me? Some of the BRZs that meet the specs on my order have been delivered but were not pre-ordered vehicles. I placed my order on April 20th, so I'm wondering why un-allocated cars are being delivered before mine.

Any update you can provide would be helpful.




Their email:

Thank you for the email. Maura McCaney (with whom you previously worked) is out of the office until the end of the week. I took a look at your BRZ order and hope the following information is helpful to you. I will let Maura know of your email and my response.

Your order is properly in our system and will fill. Right now, the ETA for your BRZ is the end of the year. This is an estimate and may change. Although we would like very much to get your vehicle to you sooner, we face some challenges in doing so. Specifically, the limited production of this vehicle, the high level of demand, and some factors related to our Distribution process that we are working on. You are correct that BRZ vehicles are arriving throughout the country. Most are filling sold orders; some are not. The automatic transmission vehicles are not as in demand as the manual transmission and may be some of what you are seeing. Others may be vehicles coming in to fill a sold order that was cancelled at the dealership level.

I spoke with Anna Latta, Sales Manager at Performance. I let her know of your contact to SOA. She and I discussed some of the above information. Again, we can confirm that the order is properly in the system and will fill. My recommendation is to continue working with the team at Performance. We are providing periodic updates to our dealerships regarding ETA information. If the ETA for your BRZ changes, Performance will know this and will be in the best position to communicate with you.

If you have any questions about this information, or if we may be of any further assistance, please let us know. Thank you for ordering the BRZ and for your patience. I don't know if you have had a chance to drive one or not. I drove one two weeks ago and it was excellent.

Sincerely,

I had a DGM Manual limited (#3 of 7) at Johnson Subaru ordered. The #1 spot locally in Wilington didn't buy the car so I got it (needed a car asap). So if you are interested call Johnson and talk to Ryan Wickes. Not sure if it is spoken for but worth a shot.

^interesting, I may call. Im in no hurry but DGM was my 2nd choice...

I concur!

I picked up my custom order Hot Lava this morning.
Craig at Leith is by far the best salesman I have ever dealt with. Always prompt with updates and actually responds to questions very quickly.

Excellent news and Congratulations!:happy0180:

I also ordered at Leith. Excellent dealership. If I may ask, when did you place your pre-order and what was custom?

[Kurenai]

Looking through my emails... June 1st.

(I was really surprised that it only took a bit more than a month)

My order was an AT Hot Lava, completely stock (no options)
