Hi guys,
New here, I'm very frustrating at this point. Order my Brz back on July 29th. Got my so# and date of delivery of end of December on August 12th. I was the first at the dealer to order a 23 brz, by October there was three people with orders behind me. The next inline got there car back in February. Every month mine keeps getting pushed, it's to April now. Mines a limited manual. The dealer as not gotten any answers to why and they reached out to there rep. I'm in NY, with no answers either. I called SOM and they said they can't help and I needed a 9 digit order number to track anything. I did not get that. Did anybody else get that number? It seems to me after seeing people on here wait time, It's taking away to long.
Mike
Hi Mike,
Sorry you are going through this. I am also in NY and going through the EXACT same thing! But I've been waiting even longer. I ordered a 2022 on Jan 6th 2022, and it keeps getting pushed. A week or two ago they told me April now (it got pushed at least 5X). I got fed up waiting, so I put a deposit on a GR86 as well, That one has a VIN, and is trackable (on the ship now), so it should be at the dealer in about a month. At this point, I am just going to grab the first car that arrives.
After several calls to the dealer as well as SOA, I finally realized why I'm having these issues. Apparently, NY as well as the New England area goes through a distributorship for their orders, unlike the rest of the country that orders directly from SOA. Therefore, no order #'s are given to us, no VIN's, and no (real) ETA. The cars just seem to show up randomly out of nowhere. The dealer told me that the color red seems to be a problem for my car (apparently the factory ran out of red paint, lol, wtf) so I gave charcoal and silver as acceptable colors as well. This car purchase is basically a joke at this point! I have purchased dozens of cars in the past 37 years and NEVER saw anything like this!
