does any one know how they will do it? manual/auto. how will they divide them?
1. is it what ever you pref. with your dealer is what they will get?
2. so many manual and so many auto are made and when the manual are sold out auto is left and vice/versa.

 

I have no idea...

 

I don't know, that's a good question. Maybe all the people that "preferenced" what they wanted before it's released will get what they want and the one's left over are whatever they decided to put in at the factory (split based on previous orders?)... Just my crazy toughts.

 

i herd they are only going to be 316 in the LA regtion. that's it.

 

Word is here in the NY region (NY, NJ and western CT) there will only be about 200 for the March/April release...

 

Make that 199, mine is taken, by me.

 

GST (Gulf States Toyota) gets 10% of toyota's US shipped cars, so 210 in 4 states down here. Breaking down the number of stores shows like 3.333 RS 1.0s per scion store. Preferenced mine the day it became available to do so, now I'm just praying for a manual version to get allocated to us

that is my question. does anyone know whether the rs 1.0 is made to order or is there a certain # of each (manual/auto) that they made and are going to distribute.
my concern is that if i cant get manual than i'm getting a RX8. fudge it is what i say if they cant get me what i want.

 

i only know there will be 2000 of them produced.

 

Sorry, that would be 2100!

 

RK scion in Hampton VA is getting two and auto and fivespeed model

 

Miller Scion in Manassas, Va is getting 2 also, at least one 5-speed (mine) and he's trying to get another 5-speed but will settle for an auto if he can't. He'll know for sure Thursday when everything is done for allocation.

 

I've got to negotiate trade-in value, but if they aren't too moronic, i'll be putting a deposit on a 5-spd soon!
