Close this thread...hell close the entire internet!! My man @nimdavii just killed it :lock::rofl:
I guess pairing up with a German company and using a Canadian production/assembly facility located in Austria as a Japanese company is not the best way to go about things if you want to have any idea when your product will arrive in the United States...

Dealer got their 1st 3.0 Premium and said that because the LE went so fast at 10k over, that this one would be 15k over, and that I would be in danger of missing out if I didn't get it at that price.

Why are most car salesman so uneducated on the products they sell, I will never understand.
Don't think they are truly uneducated. They just hope the potential buyer is uneducated and take advantage of them. TBH, is pretty hard to lie to the customer with a poker face. :rolleyes:

Until last month I lived in New York and so I’d naturally stopped by Toyota of Manhattan to see if they had any Supras allocated. They said they had a waitlist, and so I signed up for it, but they couldn’t tell me the pricing at that time. When the LEs came in, the owner of that location picked them up and then they reached out to those of us on the waitlist to try and sell it to us. Their asking price? $99,999.

I ended up picking up an LE out of state back in July and got off of Toyota of Manhattan’s waitlist, but they still text me from time to time for some reason. They just texted me again this morning and so I responded just out of curiosity to see if they’re still trying to get $100k for their LE (it’s red and is #629/1,500). Here’s how the conversation went:

I wish I was joking but no, that is a real text conversation I had with the sales rep at Toyota of Manhattan, and from today (October 18, 2019) - three months after the release of the car. These people are delusional.

I actually already did that several months ago. If he simply scrolled up in the conversation he would be able to tell that I'm trolling him. I guess he's sent so many follow up "hey, we have the new Supra!" texts in the meantime that it's quite a ways up in the conversation. Since I've got no skin in this game, I'm trying to haggle him down to see how low they'll go lol.

I was told by one dealer that I called in south TX that I better get their 2020 Supra, not only because they’re “only going to get one, maybe 2” but because the 2021 Supra is going to be electric. :dunno:

I was like, “wow, I hadn’t heard that.”

The salesperson said, “Toyota is keeping that a secret, and I wasn’t supposed to tell you.”
