Interesting. I put in my zip code and just saw 3 launch editions.

I wonder if they're doing this as a way to combat dealerships that are marking up their vehicles (by making it easier to find where new Supras are being sold and therefore reducing the perceived need to rely on dealerships that are claiming that these things are really rare and you need to buy theirs or else you may not get one at all).

I donā€™t think these are truly all the cars available at the local dealerships. It looks more like ā€œhere are a bunch of cars and see what your dealer hasā€. I know what cars my local dealer has coming in and the ones they show are not them.

Looks like Toyota had updated their site recently. I just noticed the option to pull inventory by zip code. Looks like my area has a bunch coming available on 10/23/19.

FWIW, not even sure what the search is providing ---

When you drill down an actual car, (I picked a White LE) select contact dealer, the selection is all dealers in order, closest to my zip. The dealer I bought my LE from is on the list (far at the end), and they certainly aren't getting another one. They are however getting a few Premiums; I saw their allocation. I am sure 7 pages of dealers aren't getting one either.

I don't see any VIN information either; the search appears to be providing a list of configurations that could theoretically exist, however, not actual cars.

Toyota has done something funky with their website, but I thought it was interesting since I checked it a few weeks ago and didnt have the Supra available to search. Toyota must have done some changes to their website... I had to search for a tacoma last year for my brother in law and it would drill down the dealership and ship date.
