Spoke with a salesmen at my closest dealer.

The guy sounded professional but omg he didn't know anything about the car. He told me there is 2 trims, premium and limited.....

I had to correct him lol But even then he said he was sorry that they just bring the cars and they sell them. No training. And I get him because I too work at a dealer and they wont let go of a dime to train anyone in anything. You need to learn as you go.

He said he will give me a call at the end of may/beginning of June when more of their cars come in to test drive one. The guy didn't even ask for me to come in and put a deposit.

So I hope to have my FRS sometime next month. If everything goes smoothly.

Yea Im looking forward to test driving one. I haven't put down a deposit or discussed anything with a dealer yet. I'm thinking about getting in touch with a few in the area to see what the deal is, chances of me getting one by the end of June, etc

Not all regions are that stingy when it comes to training. I know in my region they're setting up an autocross-like track as part of the training for the sales associates.
