We're SOL, bro... still quite a bit of waiting for us

Maybe not... supposedly southbound ships go directly to panama canal then head for Huston THEN Puerto Rico. Second stop


Edit: wishfull thinking, more often than not we are last

I just got off the phone with my sales associate. He told me that his mgr spoke with one if the area reps today and was told that my series 10 will be in by the end of June!!! I'm pretty happy with this information. My sales associate is telling me that I have places the first and only order for a series 10 (FR-S) at this dealership.

While I will not regard the I info as gospel, the news is encouraging nonetheless. On Wednesday last week, the day I left a deposit, I was told mid-late July as a probable delivery time frame.

I do not have a vin number associated with my order so this information may or may not be accurate.

I am planning on going with zero dealer options. When buying my last new car I picked the wheel and tire protection, the ventureshield clear bra, and the interior and exterior finish protectant. Of the 3 extras the interior / exterior protectant was the least useful/beneficial.

Who is planning on adding dealer installed options. (TRD exhaust, or TRD intake perhaps)

I have a stack of stuff I'll be installing on Day 1 after the first stop at the tire shop for the RE-11A's. Perrin 2.5" resonated catback, TRD CAI, trunk lid liner and shift knob to match my FJ TRD S/E.

I just got off the phone with my dealer. They've lost track of the car. For some reason it's no longer showing as shipped. I'm trying not to second guess anything but have visions of a Series 10 falling off a loading ramp into Mikawa Bay. They're still checking, should have another update tomorrow.

They order stops to wherever is closest to lighten the load and save fuel, so yours should be delivered sooner than East coast owners.

Going to go with clearbra and likely tint as only dealer options. Other mods come further down the road.

They've listed under my current accessories Base 10 Series - $0 (Assuming this is the 10 Series goodies). Premium Pioneer Audio Upgrade - $0. I wonder if Canada won't get the new stock unit because there is no BeSpoke in Canada. This would at least explain this accessory, instead we get the old upgraded pioneer system. No VIN on the details given, just first week of July delivery.

Well, I have my all weather floor mats sitting in my room. I Also went with the 5 axis lip kit all around... Actually im still debating on the 5-axis (yes dealer installed) or to just stay stock...not yet entireley convinced... Actually curious on how the Gialla bodykit will look on this car. That body kit is sick! I hate ricer mods but that body kit looks classy. I need more pictures... not many people have it, but till now it looks pretty sick.

But everything else offered by the dealer is a no go. I dont even want them to wash it lol.
