Who just put a deposit down on JF1ZNBE19N9753069 at Beaverton Toyota?
Congrats to you! Such a nice VIN number.



... but you also just ruined my day

What are the meaning between all the dealer status codes again?

They still do $2k over MSRP, right?

Mine is at the dealership now, they sent me pictures this morning. The tires unfortunately won't be delivered until Monday, so I have to wait a little longer.

Correct. I was also in line at Walnut Creek but who knows if I ever would've gotten my preferred color with like 40 people ahead of me. And I tried to reserve in November!

The car arrived at port a week ago, so I assume F means it's on a train/truck en route to the dealership.

Being in the center of the USA has its disadvantages. Mainly for me having to wait longer than the rest of the country for my GR86.

On January 15th my dealer let me know it’s on a train to Kansas City and was in Laurel, Montana. Today I saw that my ETA changed to a later date of Feb 20thish. As far as I know no GR86’s have landed here in my region. I wonder if a train went down or maybe they’re waiting on trucks for delivery perhaps. Even though the weather isn’t the greatest here it would be fun to cruise around…

There's 2 at my local dealership and 4 others within' a 20 mile radius that I know of. But they're all automatics

To anyone defending dealerships on this forum... a dealership contacted me nearby telling me they got a base model MT GR86 coming in but they are doing a $15,000 mark up.

Someone help me come up with a good response for laughs.

Ask them if the mark-up includes a complimentary Toyota coffee mug.

That is one dealership out of several hundred. They are not all pirates!
You can wait 6 months and get that one for list. Or get none at all. Who knows at this point.

And about 80 shares in Toyota stock!

I would respond, that I appreciate the offer but I don't need the bundled Corolla in the mix.

How about - “I’m not interested.”

Not all but a lot. Stealerships are a big oligopoly scam. The very opposite of free market when a person can’t order their own car straight from the manufacturer. Between them and the ultra wealthy snagging spots only to flip the car for a huge market, sliding money under the table, prices are ridiculous at every price point.

I wonder how long people will continue to be squeezed dry before they pop.
