FR-S wait time? - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

6 weeks from when I placed my order. I was told my car was ordered and it sure seemed to be true. I was able to get updates when it went into production and was assigned a vin.

It sure seemed like a real order process not just waiting for a Whiteout 6MT with no options to show up.

A little over a month.

2 days, I cancelled my order for a 2013 mustang gt and bought this when it was freed up

hmm ic, i called around and it seems dealers have them in stock just that its ridiculously hard to get the 6mt whiteout. im just disappointed the dealer told me 2 months and now its going to be over 4 months.. They did say if i changed my order to any other color though i would have priority. One dealer I called even said they have around 100 people on list for the white 6MT.

No dealer has 100 people on a list for a whiteout 6 MT...no way. That dealer is choking your chain!

But yeah Whiteout is the hottest color right now...

2 weeks

I ordered a week or so ago and was told 2 months directly through toyota, not the dealership. At first I cared, but really if it takes 6 months, that is JUST FINE with me.

Whiteout Manual.

What color and transmission option did you guys put and how long did you wait?

I requested a manual whiteout.

I places my order on May 29th with a deposit. Still no projected delivery date. The dealer has stopped taking new orders. He has been trying to trade with other dealers to no avail.

About ten years.

It took me 2 weeks. I helped the dealer by finding cars on the lots of dealers within 500 miles using Cars.com. He contacted them and finally got one to send one to my dealership.

Many of them wouldn't give them up though, and it may be tougher to get them to do so now.

domsawww · 10-05-2012, 10:56 AM

Im gunna go test drive one on sat in moreno valley cali. at moss bros toyota. they said they had some... i wont know thats true till i get there. As i am not looking to buy one right now and just test drive one i hope they do cuz if not im waisting my time.
