Don't worry everything is going to be handled properly and everyone will be taken care of in the end. Just gotta sit back and wait.

Trust me, I'm right there with you on wanting to flash this beast lol

Now you can cry like a girl when you realize you have a cable, a tune, and a car, but still can't flash. Yes, stare at that box intently. Lust for what is so close but still just as far as its ever been. Realize how utterly powerless you really are. Congrats! Welcome to club masochist! We can be roommates!

Is this a problem for people who already have their tunes installed for a while and need to flash back and forth between stock, e85, or stg1 93?

I think all of us are used to waiting by now: 6-8 months for the car (or 3 years depending on when you started counting), then another 2 days because the bumper needed a respray on arrival , then 2 months for the cable, and now however long it takes for the tune update, etc. etc.

I consider my entire BRZ ownership experience to be character building at this point.

This post makes me feel bad. I didn't pre order. I walked into a dealership and bought my 6MT BRZ Limited (for under sticker) off the showroom floor. Then, I was the first order for the tune + cable. Ended up getting that overnight (since Visconti is only 1 state away). Did have to wait a couple days for the first tune, though.

I guess I was very lucky

I wouldn't say smarter, just luckier. I mean I didn't have any control over that dealership having one in stock, or John posting the group buy right after a paycheck. LOL
