Weird. I was told yesterday that my red LE was on hold at port too, but some other dealers near me have already gotten their LE supras last week.
This makes me wonder how accurate the dealers’ systems are. They give me updates every few days but they seem to move the car a step forward, then a few steps back.

Congratulations! Now time to break it in properly and do a run up 330 to Running Springs to Crestline and back down the 18.

Haha yes. I run up highway 38 and down 330 as 38 is about 5 min from where I live.

I plan on heading up Angeles Crest later this month and I may drag some other cars along too.

Sweet! You have the best opportunity! We definitely have some of the best twisty canyons in the U.S. I literally live right across the street from Highland Valley and Palomar is about 25 miles away. :drive:

Don’t bother calling Toyota about the launch model delays to dealers. They are clueless and deflect you back to the dealer. They will not answer specific questions as to why base and premium models are at dealers/sold already before launch models. Launch models first 1500 made still sitting in ports while models made after them have been shipped and sold. You will get corporate canned lines read to you and no information to answer this question. Very aggravating and has soured my excitement for the car with their handling of this launch. Don’t know who’s running this show but it’s a huge failure. They at the very least should have information for customers buying their car. The lack of information is what has me boiling.
Absolute shit show! And I can't really call and bitch to my dealer because they are in the dark like the rest of us.

Makes you wonder why it's specifically the west coast cars that have a problem / are delayed...

Talked to meydealer today and apparently it's only the LE's that are affected. He said they are right lipped and wouldn't tell him the problem. The did ask if we would be willing to take a non LE. Of course the answer was NO.

Well... if a good chunk of the LEs are out of commission from the get-go, that means that the LEs will become even more scarce (e.g., 1/900 instead of 1/1,500). Hopefully it isn't any permanent damage, although I do wonder whether they would remake those specific # of LEs if they never even made it into the market.

Got this from my dealer today regarding my LE. Dealer sent me this, which he received from someone on the distribution side...

(First I was told it was stuck on a car hauler in Chicago, turns out it was held up in Indiana.)
