Ya that's BS...just go to another dealer.

I was told by Longo Toyota ( a huge dealer down here in socal, it has the largest allocation of FR-S's in socal) that they only go by order only, and you have to wait 1-2 months....and they already had 80 people on the list.

I called Toyota of Irvine...they had a silver FR-S MT...I went there, hammered out a deal....done! I drove it home that night.

i pre-ordered on February 23rd and still haven't gotten my car.

so gues what, YOU have to wait, learn to be patient or feel free to buy a Genesis Coupe or something or hunt for someone's failed purcahse deal.
I would advise you to shop around. I was told mid July @ one dealer in Calgary, (PM for which one) and i put a deposit down i believe late may, it took me forever to finally get a delivery date so I started shopping all the dealers in Calgary. I'm now expecting Delivery Of my White 6MT next week! word! SHOP AROUND!!!! PS Derek @ Stampede Toyota its straight up no BS and his sales manager and GM are also on top of there shit with no BS. there completely aware of what they have sitting in Vancouver and they speak directly with Scion them selves. they will also get the info for you right away.

So yea, Derek Chan, and his managers are the guys to talk to if you want real info, im not saying they will for sure get you a car super fast but they will get you honest information. I pulled my deposit from a different dealer today and with in an hour I got my VIN and i got lucky and got the white FRS that someone backed out of, but they did tell me they have more allocations sitting in VAN and had VIN #'s

so yea, I was prepared today to call The dealerships surrounding calgary as well so my suggestion in call around to everyone, who knows. worth a try

I went around to as many Subaru/Scion dealers that were within reasonable driving distance until I found what I was looking for! White 6MT! I cared about that more than the actual make.
