what happened that you have to wait for a second car?
Long story short, I placed my deposit I was first in line, the dealership owner was second. Car comes in and now I’m miraculously the second in line. They never said who bought the car but I have a pretty good idea what happened. I guess being the owner has its benefits...

that actually happened at the first dealer i went to. Dropped the deposit. A month or two later. im told the owner of the dealer is buying the one i was supposed to get and the second one the dealer was supposed to get. Its kinda dirty move by owners honestly.

In that first Supraboi video the brake lights are blinking, but not the inner turn signal portion on the rear, but on the front the yellow turn signal lights are flashing. That is really odd.

Front: Turn Signal Flash
Rear: Brake Engage Flash

Weird quirk i just noticed

My dealer has been keeping me up to date and mine hit the port on the 16th, will get processed on the 22nd, then shipped to the dealer on August 5th. Arrival will be August 7-12.
That royally sucks! My dealer daily screen from July 2nd is. Now it's nowhere to be found!! if yours is showing August, I'm marching towards Toyota HQ in Texas to let them know summer is almost gone!

Houston dealers don't either. Fred Haas told me tomorrow. They have 2 dealerships down here both are asking for a 30k markup. Interestingly enough though it looks like they bought some other dealerships LE allocations. As of today they are showing 5 LE Supras coming.

How long is the PDI process?? I got a call from my dealer today that my LE should be in Friday or Saturday. Then he goes on about saying they need to keep the car for 3 to 4 days for the PDI process... Apparently they need to wait for the Navi code which comes from Germany. And I think it’s bs

Not BS they started PDI for mine last Thursday. And ran into the code issues too. A lot of dealers got the cars before even getting the required codes.
