Officially ordered my A91 edition

[Dannyvandelft]

I think I just figured out how to tell what port it’s at. If you tell me the dealer and the color I can figure it out I believe

They're in New Jersey, New York harbor. It's technically New Jersey, some call it New York.

In Toyota system it Says NY. It very well maybe in New Jersey but I’m just going with the initials they have next to the port

Yeah exactly.

For real hope they get them moving soon.

So are all the A91's coming over on this ship already spoken for or does this include dealer inventory as well?

I suspect this includes dealer inventory as well. I find it hard to believe that all A91s have been spoken for, but the process to get your name on an allocation was super tedious. I lucked out and found my dealer online but it was just a random search that got lucky. I know the forum doesn't represent the whole community, but I feel like there have to be some examples that aren't spoken for.

If you don't mind me asking, what was your process as for finding one?

There should still be some available. I abandoned an allocation at Avondale Toyota in AZ to switch to something more local, perhaps they still have theirs. Though the west coast boat is yet to come, last I checked.

Edit: As for search process, just use cars.com to find leads and then call.

my saleman told me they are at the port since the 10th and they are not sending to the dealers due to something about they couldnt print the window stickers...my salesman told them that is unacceptable and got the regional rep invoved to bypass the system and mine it should be at the end of the month to lock my sale in for aug....not sure if this helps anyone but perhaps they can request this to be done...

I believe your salesman is BSing you here. They very well could of called the Regional Rep but they aren’t able to bypass anything. They can’t cut down the time it takes to get out of port. They are able to get it hot loaded once it’s out of the port. If it has to go on a rail they can’t speed that part up either. It’s only with the trucking company and even then it will be hard with the Supra as not every carrier and take the Supras.

So in theory those that arrived in NY on 10th could leave as early as tomorrow? Are there usually any further updates in the system?

 

[e_miller81]

Not until they leave port. Once they leave port they will either get shipped or hit the rail. Not until then will we have an update.

In the past Toyota has held vehicle at port until the vehicles that needed to get railed arrived. This way most dealers will receive them around the same time period. Not saying it’s going to happen this time but it could very well happen. Otherwise the dealers closest to port should seem them sooner.

Hey guys, i inquired about the cars being stuck at port and my salesman responded by telling me that the supras are being audited right now. So hopefully once that's over the cars can finally be shipped out

I live in WV and called a bunch of bigger city dealers to check. I had a Phantom car reserved that my local dealer was allocated, but they basically told me that it seemed that Toyota was funneling the A91s to bigger markets, and WV didn't make the cut. I checked Autotrader, CarGurus, etc on a daily basis to see how many of the 2021s were starting to be advertised and I would usually filter to Blue exterior color to see if any happened to turn up. One day I found one, and then went to the dealer's website to verify, then called to verify again as there were no pictures of the car shown. Felt like any dealer I called prior to that couldn't provide me any information at all.
