so you're saying, new customers that comes in and ask for the same spec and colour as to the previous owner that bailed on the order, gets to jump the queue (kinda of), right? just guessing...

Yeah thats what I mean. I'm hopeful my dealer does the right thing that when there is a cancel, the next in line for that make and model gets bumped up, and not just sells to a new customer.

Pulled a miracle, ordered a manual Black GTS with Aero last weekend.. Avoided the 19 month waiting period, instead it arrives in 6 weeks! Although I haven't told my supra yet...

They're not queue jumping if other customers refuse them. We would always inform existing customers first, but there's always a chance that people can pick up cancelled orders before factory orders have arrived.

thanks mOnty, appreciate your comments. My Dealer had a cancellation on a 'Tornado Grey' GT manual and offered me that considering where I was on their list but I told him thanks but no, I will wait for my 'Velocity Orange' instead! It was good to see that at least they contacted those who already had placed orders before putting it to the 'general public''
All we have to do is source a spare wheel unless of course it gets 'bumped' to September build from October, considering Toyota letter of 10 July saying GT wait is around 2/3 months Congratulations on the new baby, new house and all!! |

Hypothetical 1: "A" has a GTS Red on order and is due in Sep "B" has a GTS Red on order and is due in Oct "C" has a GTS Red on order and is due in Nov "D" wants to buy a Red GTS, not on order "A" decides to drop his order Dealer offers "B", takes A's order Dealer offers "C", takes B's order Dealer offers "D", takes C's order Hypothetical 2: "A" has a GTS Red on order and is due in Sep "B" has a GTS Silver on order and is due in Oct "C" has a GTS Red on order and is due in Nov "D" wants to buy a Red GTS, not on order "A" decides to drop his order Does the dealer then offer it to "B", or skips him and goes to "C"? Hypothetical 3: "A" drops order "D" walks in on that day, dealers says oh look, we have a cancelled order, and gives "D" that order, with a very short wait time? |
