my car was first supposed to get here three weeks ago.....

my car was then supposed to get here saturday...

my car is now likely to get here in a couple weeks....

IT IS KILLING ME....

not that i really need a car, im just a kid on summer vacation - but come on


Its possible that it gets here Saturday, and if so, ill be glad to share but Scion projected selling 100,000 tC's, the sold over 140,000 - that being said, alongside the fact that the cars are made in japan (GOOD THING), we have to wait - im sure its killing more buyers than just me...but yeh, just though id share my anticipation

 

Feel good in knowing you made the right decision.
I can't tell you how much it'll mean to you when you DO take delivery.

 

I know how you feel man.. I put an order out June 13th. It will hopefully arrive here the first week of July. I've been losing sleep cuz i'm waiting for my tC. I haven't been able to sleep past 10am all summer. I find myself browsing tC forums all day and it doesn't help it at all.. LOL..

 

"June 20 (Bloomberg) -- Toyota Motor Corp.'s Scion raised its 2005 U.S. sales forecast to 140,000 vehicles....Sales through May more than doubled from a year earlier to 62,003 and are on pace to reach almost 150,000 for the year. Mark Templin, manager of the brand, said production capacity will hold down the annual growth. Scion in January forecast annual sales of at least 120,000.

"Unless something changes between now and the end of the year we will not have the production to be able to sell 150,000 cars,'' Templin, 44, said in a phone interview today from Toyota's U.S. sales base in Torrance, California. "We think that we have the potential to do around 140,000.''

congrats, at least you will get one soon....seems production capacities are gonna get in the way of some folk who want one later this year.

 

Ditto. The wait is killing me. After 3 months of looking at auctions for an 05, i finally went to the dealership expecting to just be able to pick one up. But no. More waiting. I ordered mine on may 30 and i'm still waiting. This would be a lot easier if all tc's had side airbags. But no. Everytime i find a tc that's manual, it's no side airbags. So there's my story. Oh yeah i've been practically living on the forums.

 

Are you willing to live with any other colors? It's a good idea to give them at least two colors that you could work with. That sometimes will get you a car much more quickly. I originally wanted an IIP 5spd. That became a highly unlikely combination with the '05 model year winding down, so I went with the RS1.0 my dealer had and I haven't looked back.

 

dude im on the same boat

it sucks big time

but hey thats life

 

I too am waiting for my tC. I was told it would arrive on June 24, but now the date has slipped to June 27 or 28. Oh the agonizing pain of waiting.

 

I know how you feel dude, I had to wait more than two months to get mine. It sucked but it was worth it in the end.

 

i on the other hand didnt have to wait to get a tC. i walked in and saw i, and bought it. though i feel yalls pain since i got in a car accident and now have been waiting 3 weeks to get back in my baby. they are saying next friday. so far i have driven a 04 grand am and a 00 ford explorer............i my miss tC!

 

been there, done that...but when the d@mn S/C is coming out???...can't sleep

 

waiting for my tc as well... ordered a NB but the FM is catching my eye lately.... so who knows i might have to wait another month or so.

 

i just ordered a NB, but wont' be processed until 10 more days cuz i have people ahead of me T__T

but rite now i feel like im regreting picking the NB, i have 10 days to choose my color... well actually 8 now T__T what to do... what to do...

 

I've been waiting since April 2nd. Put in an order for an 05 but when I heard of the 06 coming, I went ahead and changed the order at the end of May. But the wait might be over on the 28th or 29th of this month. I cant wait.

 

i had ordered an 05, the dealership messed up and ordered me an 06 - NO COMPLAINTS THERE

im not gonna compromise for color or options coz this is my first car, and if im gonna get the car of my choice - why not the way i want it...yes its stubborn, but no regrets, and itll pay off........eventually

 

I finally got my tC and let me tell you, it was worth the wait! LOVE IT!!! put 200 miles the first 2 days I had it!

 

My journal
Day 5:
today is another long day because all i can do is wish for that day to come... my tC ...which wont' be here till end of july. i am having trouble stayin on track at work and i am having trouble sleeping. Was wondering can a scion specalist diagonsis what is my problem. So are there any doctor in the house?

 

Out of the book symptoms of Scionitis. Scionitis is a rare but increasingly common problem involving the imflammation of a certain part of the brain. The portion of the brain affected is known as "what moves you". Individuals affected by Scionitis are advised to remain calm, get plenty of sleep, drink a healthy amount of fluids, and above all, allocate unreasonably large amounts of financial resources for the purpose of modification. If symptoms do not improve prior to vehicle delivery, the affected individual should consult the nearby dealer for a suitable remedy or consider visiting a different one for a quicker treatment.

 

just be happy your not me. I have a year then the official wait begins

 

mine is coming RIGHT now...im so excited..couldnt sleep yesterday =P..dont worry itll come soon hehe
