Newbie to the board. Thought I’d give my update on my 10 series FR-S arriving ??? via a Madison, WI dealer: “built May 10th and shipped across May 24th”. Other than that, I have nothing. Feel like an idiot waiting for car with no VIN, bill-of-sale, etc. Regardless, I’m excited as all get out!

...making progress here in Madison. I just received a text from my dealer that the 10 series lease residual value finally got populated into Toyota's dealer portal. Hopefully, the money factor is not outrageously high!

Maybe all of our cars have the same issue torqdork's car is having so they are being fixed? If its the paint or anything of that nature, I am out. Not going to settle for anything that's been resprayed. Keeps you eyes out and keep others in the loop!

Well, not mine... it was "scheduled for production last week" and is now on a boat...or so am I told.

I think "it's on the boat" is car-speak for "the cheque is in the mail".

That's something new. Never seen Ontario plates in french before. Did you ask for it in french, or does it depend on where you're living?

I chose the the french slogan... I'm a French teacher. Seemed appropriate.

You have the option of either though...
