Question Vancouver FR-S Demo Day?

Hey guys,

So I went to Regency Toyota at Main and 12th to see if they had an FR-S in the other day. Turns out they had one in but the owner took it home already after they did the dealer prep for it.

So there is one running the streets out there.

I noticed that other cities and cities in the states have a demo day for this car. does anyone else from the lower mainland know if we're getting one or if Scion Canada is having one for the west coast?

Also, I was talking to one of the sales men and they said that they wouldn't have a demo car for at least 4 months. Are there any other dealerships that have cars available for test drives?

Thanks!

4 months for a demo? That is whack. Dealerships in the GTA are expecting them at the end of the month. Something smells here.

Vancouver had a demo day already

multiple dealers got some time with a white frs

Openroad Scion will have a silver auto demo car come May 21


Are you on a pre-order list or have any money down? Seems like you got left in the dark completely to me

Yup, probably

I was thinking of buying this year but decided to buy next year.

I saw threads about demo day in Toronto, I guess I missed the Vancouver thread.

Guess I'll check out OpenRoad, thanks for the heads up.

Who did you talked to in Regency Scion? The Toyota PA gave you the wrong info? We have the DEMO on 21 this month too. All dealer in lower mainland do have the same time. Let me know if you need help.

Has anyone got any more information on this? Or any more information period?

I would love to know when OpenRoad is having their test drive event. I would also like to know if they have actually got our cars in or not.

I'm dying to get this process rolling. Everyone keeps asking me "when is the car coming?". Of course I know nothing.

Ben
