Hey all, I was just wondering if anyone on the boards knew when the next shipment of Scions will be coming in to Port Newark. Im in NYC.

Id like to know just to get an idea of the wait time, its 4 days so far....


thanks in advance

4 days is pretty good. I waited two weeks, and some people on here will tell you about some horrendously long waits (months)

 

I had to wait 4 weeks for my 05. 4 days is a wonderful thing.

 

So the ship comes all the way from Japan to Newark? Damnn.

 

Well yea 4 days so far, lets hope its not horrendous like you guys said....

I checked ToyoFuji's website they have no ship schedules posted for North America.

PLus the dealer is being a dick I called twice still no call back, I might just have to go there tomorrow.

 

^^ Sounds like a bad dealer... if you can, I suggest checking out another dealer who actually cares and wants to work for your business. They should be able to tell you.

 

My dealer finally called back and said I should have the car by the end of the month, if not earlier. Of course he threw the 'if not earlier' in there just to make it sound better.

He said they are coming into the port soon.

 

So they do come all the way from Japan?? That's a longggg trip!!

 

they actually drive them from japan that's why it takes so long

 

I was lucky enough that the boat came in the same day I had my down payment ready to go LOL!

 

this is a bit off topic, but once the dealer can provide a VIN number, how long before the dealership actually receives the car?

 

within a week...around there

 

I ordered mine 5/29, and still havent recieved it yet. Although i did speak with the dealer a few days ago and they said it should be here by the end of the month. Hopefully...

 

 

You HAVE to be kidding me?


That long?


Did they give you any reason?

They couldnt find one damn tC in the Tri-State area?

 

What are you guys asking for on your cars. Here in Phoenix you can roll right of the lot with one. Camelback has about eight or so on the lot at most times. I am amazed that the dealers don't have any around there.

 

I ordered my car color 1EO, 6221(stick) and FE(which means all standard eqip)

 

I had to wait 6 weeks for mine. I got it June of last year, only upgrade was the airbags and navigation system, but that's installed at the dealer.

 

I waited almost a week... it hit port on Monday, and was supposed to come Saturday, but instead came on Wednesday :D

2 miles on it when I got to the dealership. (apparently there was like 1.3 when they pulled it off the truck) woohoo

Now there's almost 20 though, kinda miss the single digits

I was under the impression that "port" referred to somewhere on the West coast... but obviously not, since its phsyically impossible to ground transport something across the US in about two days

 

I dont think I would be sane enough to even drive the car after a 6 week wait. Mad props to you and all those out there that waited past a month.


The only thing I can compare this to is like waiting for xmas when ur 6 years old.
You know its coming but it kills you anyway.
